Carnelian is a so-called power stone and makes a lovely jewellery gift for luck on certain occasions requiring extra strength and endurance. Ancient Egyptian tombs are full of Carnelian jewelry, as the Egyptians believed the gemstone had great power in the afterlife. 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. It is associated with the Zodiac sign of Virgo and August/September.

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 or scallop shell - believed to promote courage, strength and hope.

Remind your friends or loved-ones to be resolute and positive by sending them this special and meaningful present - gift-wrapped for any event. Perfect for personalising and adding meaning to a bracelet.

Measures 7mm wide and 8mm long with a 4.5mm hole to fit most European-style bracelets and necklaces, or leather ones too. Please note, no bracelet is included although we can supply exceptional value bracelets / chains separately.


In Xacobeo 2010 - a Holy Year (Año Santo) in Spain because the Feast of St James (on 25th July) fell on a Sunday, over 272,000 pilgrims completed the final 100 km walk to Santiago and qualified for the 'Compostela' or certificate. 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.
