Description This is a reproduction of a found ancient Roman amulet. I don't know what they would have used it for, but my guess would be protection from the evil eye (as was the common reason for wearing phallic amulets) or fertility. This one features triple genitals an erect and unerect phallus and the mano fic or "fig-sign" hand represents the female genitals and is also a well known sign for protection against the evil eye.

It took me two days to handcarve this out of a good-sized chunk of Rowan wood.
