Small silver-tone scallop shell charms that can be used to make jewelry or decorations for party favors/gift bags.
Symbolism: The seashell, especially the scallop, is the symbol of baptism in Christianity. The baptismal font is often shaped like a scallop or decorated with one and the dish used by priests to pour water over the heads of catechumens during baptism is often scallop-shaped. The Scallop Shell is also used as a symbol of direction along the Camino, pointing pilgrims towards Santiago. Pilgrims also wear this symbol themselves which further enhances the camaraderie along this great walking trail.
