Indian silver amulet, 19th century

Height x width: 7.2 x 6.1 cm. Weight: 18.3 g.
heart shape with an elaborate decorative design; in the centre is a floral or abstract symbol enclosed in an oval frame, which could represent a lotus flower or a stylised flame, both symbols of purity and spirituality in Indian culture. The central motif is surrounded by intricate plant motifs, with well-defined leaves and branches developing symmetrically.

This type of amulet is common in Indian tradition, where such objects are used for both spiritual and protective reasons, often worn as talismans to bring good luck or divine protection.
