The 1,000-year-old pilgrimage to the shrine of St. James in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela is known as the Way of St. James (El Camino de Santiago - in Spanish). Some 200,000 pilgrims travel to the city each year from all over the world to find inspiration and/or deeper spiritual understanding. Many carry with them a scallop shell like this - believed to promote strength and hope.

Description: The bracelet consists of three big bold sterling silver symbolic scallop shells on a strap of the softest black suede leather. Bracelet measures approx 18.5cms (7.25") in length with 4cm extender and closes with sterling silver bolt ring. Centre scallop shell measures 2cms across. Handcrafted in Galicia, northern Spain.

The Way of St. James criss-crosses Western Europe, arriving at Santiago through Northern Spain. It is generally regarded as a journey of the body, mind and spirit. Modern pilgrims choose to do the Camino for personal, spiritual and/or religious reasons - or simply to take time out from their busy, modern lives. For many, the walk is to find inspiration - improving their outlook on life, bringing them into closer contact with nature and expanding their cultural horizons through contact with other pilgrims. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.

Do you know someone who could do with some extra belief as they embark on new ventures or on a special journey? Show them your support with this precious and striking Compostela bracelet. Comes gift-wrapped, like all our presents - and we can print a personal message on your behalf.
