We supply inspirational tokens of faith and good fortune, as well as blessing rings
. . to encourage people to be positive and inspired and to make wonderful presents to gift people as a reminder of their purpose and desires as they pass their day
Many years ago, people put their belief in things relating to Nature . . for example: that the trees were a connection between the Earth and Heaven; or that the water coming from Mother Earth was the pure source of Life.
Indeed, some water wells were found to have curative properties (possibly due to minerals and other elements), which led to ‘wishing wells’ – where people could wish or pray for help, according to their beliefs (or at Lourdes, in France, for example, where a young local girl, Bernadette, believed that she saw visions of the Virgin Mary who told her that the water had special properties). Even today, people around the world have many different beliefs.
Badges of faith and inspiration are worn by many different people, for many different reasons, around the world.
Whatever these beliefs, we have small tokens and blessing rings to commemorate them.
“Inspire your friends to achieve their dreams . . ”
Our inspirational good luck Tokens of Faith / Belief are simple tokens and blessing rings to remind someone of their purpose and wishes – to remind them of their beliefs (whatever they are) as they go about their daily business.

Scallop shell cufflinks ~ silver + hand-carved jet
A unique gift with special meaning for a man (or boy) - hand-crafted by artisans in northern Spain
These hand-carved Azabache Jet and sterling-silver cufflinks are in the form of the Concha de Vieira scallop shell of El Camino de Santiago which runs through Asturias in north Spain (where these cufflinks were fashioned) into Galicia and on to Santiago de Compostela (the 'field of stars').
It is said that: "Jet purifies and protects", and in Spain it is known as "la piedra mágica" (the magic stone). It originates from the Jurassic period on earth, some 65 million years ago, in the forests of the northern hemisphere - particularly in northern Europe, and jewellery featuring Jet (Azabache in Spanish) makes an ideal gift for someone starting a new phase in their life: Jet jewellery is said to offer protection and good fortune, and neutralise negative energy to help protect people from fear and indecision. Azabache is quite difficult to carve, and specialist Azabacheros and "grabadores compostelanos" (who have trained over generations in northern-eastern Spain) have made these rare cufflinks.
Pilgrims and other visitors to Santiago de Compostela especially like these cufflinks as a souvenir. Do you want to encourage a friend or loved-one along their spiritual journey through life, or give them something as a reminder of their goals and achievements? Let us send these exquisite sterling silver and Azabache scallop shell cufflinks on your behalf to show them how much you care.

Info about El Camino:
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. 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 like the ones on these cufflinks. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.
Description: These special sterling-silver and black jet cufflinks are in the shape of the scallop shell / concha de vieira, the symbol of the Camino de Santiago. Shell measures approx 13 x 13mm and the cufflinks close with a hinge.
