Fetish Necklace

Philippines

The Fetish Necklace, believed to bestow magic on the owner, derives from a centuries-old tradition. Filipinos carve wood from the abundant coconut palm into spikes, then dye and polish them to make the necklace, adding models of animals, the feathers of certain birds, and other fetish figures.

This entity appears in the story “21. Buddhist Defiance”.
