Easter is a good occasion to gift something really special and inspirational. But where did the event of Easter come from?

Easter gets its name from Eostre, the great mother goddess of the Saxons of Northern Europe. And, in many cultures, eggs are central to the event of Easter. Eggs used to be associated with spring as a symbol of germination and a new life.

So the custom of giving eggs as presents at Easter time, was incorporated into the Christian event as a way to symbolise Christ’s resurrection. Eggs, often forbidden during Lent, were brought to the dinner tables at the occasion of Easter (dyed red) to symbolise the joy of this celebration.

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 or St James Cross as featured on these earrings. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.

Wish your friends or loved-ones well by sending this unusual and meaningful present. It is the ideal gift for any special event / occasion, a friend or loved-one going on a journey, or simply to show someone that you care.

Dimensions: Each shell measures 14 x 14mm, and the earrings measure 35mm in length including the sterling silver wires.

Whatever somebody’s journey - whether on El Camino itself, on holiday, a business trip, a gap year, trekking, etc, many friends and loved-ones like to pass on a special gift to wish the recipient well on their travels - and safekeeping along the way.

Gift these symbolic Compostela earrings (believed to promote strength and hope) to inspire your friends and help them to be fortunate and safe in their life. Lovely Christmas present, Get Well Soon gift, present for someone leaving on a trip - or a gift for Mum! Comes gift-wrapped, like all our presents - and we can print a personal message on your behalf.
