✻ Set of 4 Worry Beads - Kompoloi 

Kompoloi derives from the Greek words kombos which means "knot" and leo which means "say" as "in every knot I say a prayer". Its origins date back to time, when monks began making strands of beads by tying knots on a string at regular intervals in order to say their prayers to God. Worry beads depict the Greek easy-going mentality. 

Most Cretans carry a kompoloi with them at all times. One can hear kompoloi's flips and tricks in a busy kafeneion (cafe) downtown, where people play with their kompoloi in different manners, thus letting go of their stress. Nowadays, the fact that the kompoloi keeps your hands occupied has been promoted as an excellent way to quit smoking. 

Each one of the worry beads come in a traditional woven rucksack “vourgia”. Vourgia was a backpack carried by shepherds in rural Crete. Nowadays it is part of Cretan traditional costume and is also used to put keepsakes in traditional ceremonies. 

The Traditional Greece Gift arrives in our signature Chic Greek Gifts bag box, ready to gift right out of the mail!
