Camino de Santiago jewellery ~ double, 18ct gold scallop necklace
Product Details

A spectacular gold necklace gift with meaning

This exquisite little 18ct gold scallop shell / concha de vieira necklace is intricately hand-crafted by goldsmiths in Galicia, northern Spain, and features symbols of El Camino de Santiago.

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. At least 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 symbol and everyone experiences the journey in a different way.

Wish your friends or loved-ones well on their own journey in life by sending them this really special little gift. It would show them just how much you care.
