Tradition says that anyone who has the ''sanandresiños'' will always be accompanied by luck.
The sanandresiños or sanandreses are manufactured fetishes manually in San Andrés de Teixido and which are sold exclusively on site. These are breadcrumb amulets (a symbol of hospitality and friendship) that reproduce different figures linked to Saint Andrew, providing luck to whoever has them. Each one of them symbolizes a particular area in which whoever owns it wants to achieve success: food, friendship, love, studies, peace, protection, health, work and travel.
It is about bread dough figures unfermented that the neighbors themselves knead and shape, then cook and finally carefully color with aniline. Each figure is unique because they are hand-modeled at the will of different countrymen from San Andrés de Teixido.
The making of the sanandresiños It is originally from the Reginas of Cedeira, a family that for centuries designed and made these fetishes and who have passed the inheritance from generation to generation. It is worth noting that these are maintained today and that the inhabitants of San Andrés dedicate long hours of the day and night to meticulously crafting each figure that we take home and blessed from the town, hence its power and its magical virtue .
Since they are made of painted bread crumb, it is recommended not to place them in humid or sunny places. In any case, it is not a very durable product due to its composition. Its lifespan can range from 30 days to 1 year.
