   These symbolize the shield of good luck. The belief is that if you have one   
   in your home, the gods will protect and bring prosperity, good health and   
   happiness. These are made in traditional colors with sheep's wool, rabbit   
   fur, leather, fleece and feathers from various birds. It is common to find   
   one hanging on doors or walls throughout a home.
