Product Details

. . a spectacular gift of faith, hand-crafted in Asturias

This stunning sterling-silver and jet cross is hand-crafted in Asturias, Northern Spain by specialist silversmiths and Azabacheros (carvers of Azabache or 'jet', which is notoriously difficult to work with). It is the Cross of St James (Cruz de Santiago): “La Cruz de Santiago es un símbolo que favorece el coraje y la esperanza ante las dificultades” It would make an ideal gift to show someone that you really care about them, their dreams, aspirations and well-being.

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 150,000 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 St James's Cross - believed to promote faith and good fortune.

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.

Gift a St. James Cross (believed to promote faith and good fortune) to inspire your friends and help them to be strong and safe in their life. Would make a lovely Christening present, Communion or Easter gift. Comes gift-wrapped, like all our presents - and we can print a personal message on your behalf.
