A Mizpah charm is a symbolic piece of jewelry or amulet that represents a deep emotional bond between two people, often in situations where they are separated by distance. The word "Mizpah" comes from the Bible, specifically from the Book of Genesis (31:49), where it refers to a vow made between Laban and Jacob when they parted ways: "The Lord watch between me and thee when we are absent one from another."
The charm usually features the word "Mizpah" inscribed on it, and it's often designed with two halves that fit together. When the two people are together, the halves align, symbolizing their connection, and when they are apart, they are reminded of their bond. The charm is meant to provide comfort and remind the wearer that even though they may be separated, they are still connected emotionally and spiritually.
It became popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries, especially among couples who were separated by travel, military service, or other life circumstances.
The pendants are double sided.
