    Hello Everyone,

    I don't have a clue on this one. Another group member said it might be a figa another said it was not but not sure what it is. Any assistance would be appreciated. 2017-03-11_1708.png 2017-03-11_1709.png

    Others will know more, but 'figa' seems to be a fairly specific finger gesture - sort of a got-your-nose arrangement. While your pin clearly shows a hand, the fact the it's holding a ring would preclude it being called figa.

    Definitely not a figa; that's a fist in a very rude gesture, at least in some parts of the world. This is just a necklace in a design someone thought looked cool. As far as I know anyway.
