According to these beliefs, Carnelian amulets could help ensure the soul’s passage into the next world.

The Carnelian gemstone is said to bring passion to the wearer and was believed by the Romans to shore up confidence and strength. It therefore makes a perfect gift to wish a friend or loved-one good luck in a competition, a match / game or on some special day or occasion that is going to require extra strength and fortitude.

Product Details

A gift from the heart for life's Camino - hand-crafted in Galicia

This sterling-silver open cross bears the symbolic scallop shell of the Camino de Santiago and nestling behind it is a small puffed heart. It is hand-crafted by specialist silversmiths in Galicia, northern Spain.

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 the Camino each year from all over the world: Some people walk, others travel by bike. 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 as depicted on this cross. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.

Description: The cross measures 35mm in length (including the hanging ring) and comes on an 18" sterling-silver curb chain. [A 20" length is also available]: Please choose from the options box when ordering.

But, whatever somebody’s journey - whether on El Camino itself, on holiday, a business trip, a gap year, trekking, etc, many friends and loved-ones like to pass on a special gift to wish the recipient well on their travels - and safekeeping along the way.

This scallop shell cross with its tiny heart is the perfect present to wish someone a 'buen camino' / safe journey . . sent with all your love. Comes gift-wrapped, like all our presents - and we can print a personal message on your behalf.
