Azabache, also called Jet, is a unique wood that has been absorbing the Earth's energy and heat for millions of years and has since metamorphosed into a potent stone. It is believed that the energy contained within Jet can safeguard its wearer from different types of harm, such as danger, ill fortune, and illness. To ward off malevolent spirits and witchcraft, specific African tribes burn Jet to generate black smoke. The azabache hand is a safeguarding amulet worn by young children in various cultures.
