Description:
Charmstones like these good luck pebbles, are believed to have mystical or healing powers. The stones or pebbles themselves occur naturally but are hand-crafted to inject charm and esoteric value. The Miwok and Pomo tribes of California, for example, left thousands of charm stones on the beds of Tolay Lake. Charm stones are also particularly common in Hindu and Buddhist traditions and amongst the indigenous Australian cultures. In native American ceremonies, they were used for spiritual purposes to ensure, for example, a productive harvest. The Hopi, Cree and Sioux tribes often incorporated the Indalo-shaped Rainbow Man or Rainbow Warrior figure into their stones and rituals. This Indalo or Rainbow Warrior shape from Spain is an ancient neolithic symbol found in caves near Mojacar, Almeria, and is well-recognised as a good luck charm. It is painted onto the stone with a mixture of pearlized watercolour and metallic acrylic which is then sealed to protect the image. This charm stone gift comes in a beautiful presentation box including an information card about the Indalo, and there is room to add a personal message. It is customary to give gifts bearing this mystical symbol to pass on good luck wishes to friends and loved ones and is very popular within western culture amongst people who seek a more ecological, ethical and holistic lifestyle.
