Compostela shell necklace for life's Camino ~ gold vermeil
A spiritual gift for life's journey
Handcrafted by goldsmiths in Asturias, northern Spain, this lovely gold-plated sterling-silver scallop shell is the symbol of El Camino de Santiago . . and a symbol of life's journey in general.
More Camino de Santiago info:
The 1,000-year-old Way of St. James (El Camino de Santiago - in Spanish), criss-crosses Western Europe, arriving at Santiago de Compostela in Northern Spain on the Atlantic coast. Some 200,000 people travel this Camino each year from all over the world: Many travellers choose to do the Camino for personal, rather than any spiritual or religious reasons - taking time out from their busy modern lives and perhaps finding inspiration along the way, whilst reflecting on their life in a supportive environment. Many carry with them a Scallop Shell like this. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.
Whatever somebody’s journey - whether on El Camino itself, on holiday, a business trip, trekking, etc - or staring something new, many friends and loved-ones like to pass on a special gift to wish the recipient well . . and safekeeping on their journey through life.
