Wishlist London, Present Ideas..

simplylivinguk — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 12:49:59 +0000

We know how difficult it can be to know what to buy your friends and family at Christmas time. So, to help you out we have put together a few ideas.

The first of our Christmas Present Ideas is the lovely jewellery by WishList London.. WishList London designs and showcases original collections of unique and luxurious jewellery. The beautifully themed designs are inspired to offer spiritual meaning and protection using the symbols Evil Eye, Hand of Fatima and Peace Signs.

We love WishList London for the fact that every piece has a meaning behind it. These types of Christmas presents are not only gorgeous to look at, but lovely to explain. The addition of coloured strings adds a vivacity and versatility to the collection for dressing up or down, and spreads the appeal to a wide range of ages and tastes.

War Child

War Child protects children living in some of the worlds most dangerous war zones, including Afghanistan, Uganda and D. R. Congo.

War Child has the support of the likes of Damien Hirst, Paul Smith, Lily Allen, Kate Moss, Johnny Depp, Coldplay and Oasis.

We chose War Child because the philosophy behinds WishList’s products is very much in line with theirs. Most of WishList designs are symbols of peace and protection against evil forces.

The Evil Eye (a positive force for good)

More than just a lucky charm or superstition, the Evil Eye has been revered for thousands of years and embraced by many cultures as a symbol of unity and protection from the Evil.

The Hand of Fatima

Another ancient symbol, the Hand of Fatima dates back to drawings in the Stone Age period. The hand represents divine protection, freedom and co-exsistence. It is the hand of light, directing humanity towards brightness, inner spirituality and peace.

The Red Bamboo Bead

A WishList signature, making our pieces instantly recognisable, the Red Sea Bamboo bead was regarded as the Seventh Treasure in Buddhist Scriptures, and as a strong talisman against evil spirits.

It is often given to children, as a charm against accidents; it is believed to bring good fortune to the home and to protect those who work on or near water.

WishList London is available in store and will shortly be available on our website! With stocks running out very quickly we suggest you phone us on 01206 367333 and we will happily put one by for you, for pickup or post.
