Bonfim de Bahia wish bracelets set No. 2

Description

The Bahia bracelets have been a symbol in Brazil for more than 200 years and are increasingly known worldwide. The tradition of the bands once started as silk bows with handwritten texts in silver or with ink. Nowadays the straps are worn around the wrist or ankle or tied around the gate of a church. They are also worn on hats, bags and in the interior. However you wear them, they will give you happiness and hope!

You are supposed to tie the Bahia strap with 3 knots and make a wish at each knot. When the band breaks, these wishes will come true! Cutting or breaking the strap has a reverse effect and creates bad luck.

This set contains the Bahia bands in purple (spirituality), light pink (patience and understanding), light green (life and renewal), white (wisdom and inner peace) and black (stability). You can wear them all yourself, but they are also very nice to give as a present!
