Blog #7: Cruciani

Hello everyone, this is Naoko.

I visited my parents in Turin, Italy, during this summer vacation and stayed there for about a month. When I arrived in Turin, my mother gave me a white bracelet which looks very cute and she told me that the bracelet is popular in Italy. As she told me, I saw many people wearing this bracelet and it seemed to be in fashion. So, I thought I'd like to tell everyone about the bracelet by writing about it on this blog.

The bracelet is called "Cruciani". There are 28 different colors and there are different designs. Four-leaf clover is one of the most popular designs. Here is the spell of the design, "A wish for every-leaf a four-leaf clover for every wish. The first being reputation. the second wealth, the third health and the fourth true love".

The bracelet can be worn with any kind of clothes. In addition to that, they don't cost a lot (about 1,000 yen each) in spite of the high quality and its cuteness <3 Moreover, it is people's trend to wear two or more bracelet, so when I found a shop of Cruciani, I bought another bracelet for myself. I bought many Cruciani for my friends in Japan for souvenir.
