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.

The Chinese use Garnet to cure melancholy, depression and lethargy because of its association with passion, courage and grace.

Scallop shell earrings with St James cross
Product Details

A beautiful and delicate gift to promote strength, hope and safekeeping

These delightful sterling-silver scallop-shell earrings, hand-crafted by specialist silversmiths in Galicia, northern Spain, contain a little Cross of St James (Cruz de Santiago) - symbolic of one of the great journeys of the world - the Way of St. James (El Camino de Santiago - in Spanish).

The route 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 life in a supportive environment. Many carry with them a Scallop Shell or St James Cross. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.

But, whatever somebody’s journey - whether on El Camino itself, on holiday, a business trip, a gap year, trekking, etc, (or perhaps merely the "journey" through life in general), many friends and loved-ones like to pass on a special gift to wish the recipient well on their travels - and safety along the way. These earrings are perfect for that purpose. In addition to any value that the Camino charm symbols have in themselves, or the religious faith that they might represent, these earrings can also act as a reminder to be careful when travelling. And this can be a powerful aid to staying safe whilst away from home..

Dimensions: The earrings measure 36mm in length including the sterling silver wires.

Beautiful and delicate jewellery with real meaning - handcrafted in the silver workshops of Galicia, northern Spain. These earrings would make an ideal gift for a lady / girl to show that you really care. Lovely Christmas present too, with Christian significance, or Wedding Day gift. They come gift-wrapped, like all our presents - and we can print a personal message on your behalf.
