It is believed that Noah hung a huge Garnet to illuminate the night and help steer his Ark to safety: So, travellers started wearing Garnet to light up their journey and to get protection from accidents. Garnet has been used by many explorers and travellers as it is believed to protect the wearer when journeying far from home. In particular, they were worn by the Crusaders as an aid to safely bring them home and to protect them from harm. A Garnet gem stone is often gifted to a loved-one to pass on good luck for their journey, and to someone trying to achieve goals.

With gifts of Garnet jewellery, you can pass on your blessings for many occurrences: To someone travelling (moving abroad, for example), a relative about to enter a competition, a driving test or other exam, or even as a a good luck gift for a business friend.

Garnet is also thought of as the stone of romantic love and passion, enhancing sensuality and intimacy. Although said to be more of a feminine life force and for women’s needs, Garnet is also believed to encourage a quick return of a separated love. Garnets are often gifted to women when they fall in love, and so as Engagement presents. The myth is that the Garnet, as a symbol of truth and purity, will secure someone’s love forever.

A unique piece of jewellery with meaning for someone starting something new

These beautiful sterling-silver scallop shell and turquoise earrings make a unique and eye-catching gift. The shell shape is symbolic of El Camino de Santiago (one of the greatest journeys in the world) - and, along with real turquoise gems, they make a truly stunning piece of jewellery with meaning. Some 200,000 travellers journey along the Way of St James each year from all over the world, and many carry with them a scallop shell symbol like the ones in these earrings.

Turquoise is said to be a lucky stone, and supposedly a stone of happiness (partly because historically it has also been a symbol of love).

Dimensions: The earrings measure approx 58mm in length including the sterling silver wires. They consist of turquoise gemstones, silver-coated washers and sterling silver scallop shells and ear-wires.

Info about the Way of St James:

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 to the city 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 lives in a supportive environment. Many carry with them a Scallop shell symbol like this. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.



Gift these delightful scallop and turquoise earrings to inspire your friends. They come gift-wrapped, like all our presents - and we can print a personal message on your behalf.
