Traveler Buttons
Traveler Buttons
The ancient symbol for protection while traveling. Specifics of this symbol are unknown, but its design elements are common to the rose compass—possibly Roma / Gypsy. The Roma are originally from India, migrating to Europe and North Africa via the Iranian plateau around 1050 A.D.
The traveler is also played throughout history by many powerful tricksters and shapeshifters of god-like power.
Since 1972, Quick Silver Mint has been creating authentic handmade medallions, which are available through their catalog and at festivals throughout the United States. Now, the designs are available here as buttons.
Each symbol, inspired by myth and legend, originates from ancient stone carvings, pottery, or other artifacts. Understanding these symbols may enhance your journey of self-discovery.
