This truly special sterling-silver adjustable ring features a scallop shell / concha de vieira, (accompanied by a sweet little amethyst gemstone). This is the symbol of the Camino de Santiago:
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). 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 like this. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.
