Surya Rutten

The Hamayil is an ornamental object traditionally used in the Ottoman period for religious and spiritual purposes. It typically contains verses from the Qur'an, prayers, or talismans (muska) and is worn around the neck. These items were believed to offer personal protection and also served as decorative jewelry, showcasing fine craftsmanship.

The Hamayil was not only a physical adornment but also a spiritual safeguard. It was believed that the sacred texts or prayers enclosed within had the power to protect the wearer from harm. Moreover, it served as a symbol of the individual’s faith, devotion, and cultural identity within Ottoman society.

This unique piece is inspired by the Ottoman era and crafted using authentic Ottoman silver coins. On both sides, silver kuruş coins form the traditional shape of a hamayil, while at the center stands the distinguished imperial tughra. Adorned with the tughra of Sultan Mahmud II, this amulet showcases exquisite craftsmanship, combining elegance with profound historical value.
