Jade is said to increase body strength, energy and longevity  –  being worshiped for its life-extending powers. But Jade is said to have many other properties as well – depending on its colour. For example, green Jade signifies love and is believed to attract love. It is also said to increases trustworthiness and fidelity and to inspire love in one’s later years of life.

Jade makes a great jewellery gift. Indeed, it has been treasured in China as the royal gemstone since at least 3,000 BC. The ancient Chinese believed Jade was the essence of heaven and earth, and carved Jade into birds and beasts to use as items of worship. Jade was also a symbol of power, and only aristocrats could own items made from the gemstone. It was often placed in the tombs of important members of the Imperial family assuring immortality. Confucius concluded that Jade was associated with the five cardinal virtues: compassion, modesty, courage, justice, and wisdom. The Chinese even drank it at the time of death as a powerful embalming solution. Jade can be associated with the birthstone month of March. So: Jade makes the perfect present for that special event requiring extra strength.

Green Jade is the most common colour and believed to be the most calming. It has long been used to boost energy and attract love. But it comes in many other colours, each with their own properties: Black Jade is thought to be a strong protector from negative energy. Orange and Yellow Jade are said to convey the gift of inner peace, joy and happiness, and boost the wearer’s energy. Lavender Jade is said to put people in touch with their emotions, and assist in honest communication and self control. Brown Jade is said to connect people with Mother Earth and is given as a good luck housewarwarming present, or when changing jobs, because it is thought to aid adjustment to any new environment. Blue Jade is especially to bring luck to people who feel overwhelmed or under stress in their lives. White Jade is used to help in concentration, by filtering out unwanted distractions. Red Jade is used to defuse tense situations.

So Jade is a perfect present to give for many special occasions such as Retirement, or for a stressful event like a trip to the Hospital or for an Operation because, despite helping in these stressful situations, it is supposed to increase sustenance and body strength and so help to promote longevity.

Product Details

A truly striking piece of gold jewellery with meaning

This is something very special indeed: This exquisite, solid, 18ct gold scallop shell / concha de vieira necklace would make a truly unforgettable gift. It has been lovingly hand-crafted by goldsmiths in Galicia, northwest Spain. The shell 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, also known as the Way of St. James (El Camino de Santiago - in Spanish), and so the necklace has considerable significance and gravitas.

"El Camino" criss-crosses Western Europe, arriving at Santiago de Compostela in Northern Spain on the Atlantic coast. Some 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 as depicted here. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.

Wish a special friend or loved-one well as they travel through life and face its challenges by sending this beautiful piece of jewellery. It is an exceptional gift with meaning to show someone how much you really care.

You can remind them how much you think of them, and wish them good luck, with this special Camino gift.

Gift this impressive Santiago scallop shell necklace (believed to promote strength and hope) to inspire your loved-one or friend and help them to be strong and successful in their life.
