Brotherhood of Fishermen Good Luck Talisman

Description

Brotherhood of Fishermen Good Luck Talisman “O the gallant fisher’s life, it is the best of any!” • John Chalkhill Of all the treasures and tools that follow a seasoned angler to the water, nothing is perhaps more cherished than a good-luck talisman. Lucky coins sparkle at us throughout maritime folk history, often arching through the air to carry their throwers’ wishes to depths untouched, or resting warm and heavy in a fisher’s pocket to bring them comfort during a storm. • Diameter: 1.28 in / 3.25 cm This solid copper talisman accentuates the visage of Saint Andrew, a fisherman himself before becoming an apostle of Christ. The patron saint of fishing watches over the souls of those who brave such waters, and is said to intercede when fish, waves and weather turn fickle.
