Over January and February 2009 we have more than 30 new Christening gifts to add to our site.
The first Christening gift to be added to our stock has been requested regularly over the past year. A simple
silver icthus fish pendant:
This pretty little necklace is competitively priced at only £16.99, but is the sort of Christening gift that will last a lifetime. The baby that receives this icthus on her Christening day will probably still have it in her jewellery box and be wearing it well into her adult life.
Manufactured in sterling silver by Birmingham silversmiths, this necklace is based on the ICTHUS symbol adopted by early Christian communities throughout the Roman Empire. The Greek word for fish, icthus, is an acrostic of the Greek words, Iesous Christos Theou Yios Soter which translates as Jesus Christ, Son of God, Saviour. The icthus also reflected Jesus's wish that his disciples became Fishers of Men.
This necklace is a timely addition to our range of Christening gifts, priced well under £20 including delivery.
