It carries energy and the memory of this man. I almost always set this ornament in a frame with a hand print of the owner. In this case we getting an interior object. The brooch can be removed to leave (when You want to wear it), and then return to the place. The presence of such object in the interior changes the atmosphere. And if it is the hand of your mother, or man who dear to you, who is not close to you. You always feel the warmth that radiated from this jewel on the wall.
