May I present to you… Milagros.
In hispanic folk culture, these small silver or gold votive offerings in various curious shapes are often attached to statues of saints or to the walls of churches. Literally meaning “miracles” in the spanish language, they are the physical representation of a wish or a prayer. I’ve brought these charms out of the dust and into the modern way, to bring good luck, happiness and prosperity to all who believe in their fascinating past…
The gift of an eye milagro helps to say, “you are a vision.” A pair of lungs can say, “I hope your cold gets better.” An arm could represent strength, an ear could suggest that someone is an excellent listener… the list and ideas are unique and special to the recipient or wearer.
Each are knotted onto a woven metallic thread from Belgium and hung with a brass bead from South America. Presented in a glossy black gift box, tied with ribbon and gold tissue with love, this makes a perfect gift for anyone. Get them here, enjoy!
they are all so beautiful!!! your milagros.
these are sweet jenny, just perfect! i love milagros!
I may be thick, but metallic thread from Belgium? How come? Do we have specific, special thread? :)
The idea behind, and the bodily elements, ànd the wishes… really nice.
haha! NEF, thanks for comment, it made me smile – you are a tease. What this thread from Belgium has going for it is it’s beautiful metallic rope like quality. Very nice for jewelry. Thanks Belgium!
