There's something about coffee table decor that always feels particularly personal (and revealing) – since it's a space you can experiment with books, heirlooms, and souvenirs from your travels. In Gigi Hadid's case, her pieces celebrate a spiritual tradition that, according to experts, can bring peace, confidence, or protection to your home.
In her expressive Noho apartment, Gigi has decorated her table with a rose quartz heart and a Hamsa Hand, which sit among her candles, books, and vintage magazines. Both the gemstone and the hand have similar spiritual benefits dating back to the Ancient Egyptian era.
Hand-carved from natural rose stone and polished to a smooth finish, these mini heart-shaped crystals are designed for tactile comfort and effortless everyday carry. Versatile and understated, they look beautiful on any coffee table, just like Gigi's.
This double Hamsa set brings symbolic protection into a sculptural, coffee table-ready form, pairing mandala detailing with deep blue celestial motifs. Thoughtfully scaled and finished with natural jute, the pieces read as curated objects – equally at home layered atop books, trays, or styled as quiet focal points in a living space.
Crafted from a gemstone with a serene finish, this talisman is designed to bring harmony and healing to any space. Known for infusing living rooms with tranquility, it offers quiet support whether on display or held close.
Inspired by the Hamsa Hand on Gigi's coffee table, this piece invites a similar positivity into any living room. Its intricate, multi-layered design brings a refined, meditative touch to your coffee table or console, bringing both peace and protection.
These natural gemstones, engraved with authentic golden Futhark runes, blend mysticism with design. Perfect for styling shelves, vases, gardens, or zen spaces, they bring a subtle, enchanting accent to any living room.
For a practical twist on Gigi's Hamsa Hand, I love this jewelry holder. Crafted from high-quality glazed ceramic, it's designed for long-lasting color, so you can store your jewelry and other trinkets with confidence.
'Decorating with gemstones and symbols like the Hamsa Hand reflects a deeper psychological and spiritual desire to shape the emotional atmosphere of a space. Across cultures, people have used physical objects as anchors for intention, protection, and grounding. In today’s fast-paced, digitally saturated world, that instinct is resurging,' comments Yaro Kyry, a psychic expert at Tarotoo.
As Yaro explains, in spiritual traditions, gemstones are believed to carry 'distinct energetic qualities,' with rose quartz (like Gigi's) associated with compassion and emotional healing.
'Whether someone views these meanings as metaphysical or symbolic, assigning intention to an object can meaningfully influence mindset. When you place a stone in your home with a clear purpose for peace, confidence, or protection, it becomes a daily visual reminder of that intention,' Yaro says.
Similarly, Gigi's Hamsa Hand has deep roots in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean traditions, and is said to symbolize protection and ward off negative energy.
'Its eye motif represents awareness and spiritual vigilance. In a home setting, it often serves as both a protective emblem and a subtle declaration of mindfulness and cultural appreciation,' Yaro comments.
'From a psychological perspective, decorating with meaningful objects enhances what we call intentional living. Environmental psychology research shows that spaces reflecting personal values and identity can increase feelings of comfort, control, and emotional safety. In uncertain times, especially, people gravitate toward objects that symbolize stability and reassurance.'
These pieces tap into more than coffee table trends. They've prevailed since ancient times, and will likely continue to do so for thousands more years ahead. 'The benefit is mainly alignment. Used correctly, these symbols become grounding tools, reinforcing clarity, protection, and purpose within the home,' Yaro adds. This is our sign to follow Gigi's example – for a more peaceful 2026.
