The modern, and some would say, commercial Father’s Day of western culture probably has it’s roots in America – introduced as a balance for the more traditional and historic event of Mothers Day. Grace Golden Clayton of West Virginia, is believed to have been inspired to celebrate fathers after a mine exploded in nearby Monongah at the turn of the century killing almost 400 men. So she decided to establish an event specifically to recognise fathers.  

But, in the Roman Catholic tradition, Fathers are celebrated on Saint Joseph’s Day, commonly called the Feast of Saint Joseph, on March 19. Joseph was the father of Jesua and San José is the patron of the Catholic church.

In the Anglican world however, it is June that is most commonly reserved for the occasion.

In early times, flowers were worn to celebrate Father’s Day. Today, it is more common to give a present. And this Father’s Day could be an opportunity to gift your father (or grandfather) a more meaningful present – a gift with real significance.

Would your father appreciate a special present with real meaning this Father’s Day?

Send your Dad a special and meaningful present this Fathers Day and make him feel more loved and appreciated.

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. At least 250,000 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 one on these cufflinks. Everyone experiences the journey in a different way.

Description: These special sterling silver cufflinks are in the shape of the scallop shell / concha de vieira, the symbol of the Camino de Santiago. Shell measures 18 x 17mm and the cufflinks close with a hinge.

Whatever somebody’s journey through life - whether on El Camino itself, or 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 success and safekeeping along the way.

Gift these handcrafted and inspirational scallop shell cufflinks to inspire your menfolk and help them to be strong and fortunate on life's camino. Also suitable as a presents for a Christening, Confirmation and First Communion. Comes gift-wrapped, like all our presents - and we can print a personal message on your behalf.
