The jewels of the Canary Islands: Las Argollas | Bahia Principe
Tenerife is an island where the coastline looks out over the Atlantic Ocean. Tenerife is famous for its carnival and its mild climate, which is why they call it the island of eternal spring. Tenerife is a combination of its four strongest features: the Atlantic Ocean, nature, comprehensive services and the always friendly and up-beat personality of its people.
The island offers countless ways to enjoy yourself. You’ll find gorgeous beaches on which to enjoy the sea. You’ll enjoy an endless list of different experiences: unspoilt beaches, vista points, festivals, traditional food and the impressive Teide National Park. Bear in mind that one of the biggest advantages of this island is that you can travel from north to south and explore different and highly varied landscapes in a very short space of time. You can enjoy a holiday of enormous variety without needing to travel long distances.
If you’re thinking about taking a souvenir home from the island but can’t decide what… keep reading. We recommend the Argollas Canarias, earrings in the shape of a half moon that are highly characteristic of the Canarian identity.
Women were already wearing these jewels in 2500 BC, and their appearance on the islands dates back to the time of the Conquistadors. These earrings are usually made from gold or silver, but you can also find them in various other materials due to the popularisation of this traditional craft which aims to represent the authenticity of the islands.
So if you want a souvenir of your visit to Tenerife, they are a safe bet and a highly original idea. Besides supporting local handicrafts, you will also get an innovative designer piece with artistic engraving that also embodies something very special: the continuation of Canarian authenticity.
