These humble lines, with their universal message, have given comfort to many in need of guidance. The prayer is inscribed on a sterling silver cuff bracelet:
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
The authorship of these words of wisdom, courage and inspiration is much disputed, though it is generally accredited to the American theologian Dr. Reinhold Niebuhr, perhaps in 1932. There is no shortage of other claimants, however, beginning with Cicero in ancient Rome. The wide range of claims to ownership merely reinforces the universality of the prayer. Engraved here on a cuff bracelet that will serve as a constant reminder.
Length: 6 3/4"
1/4" wide
Composed of .925 solid sterling silver.
Bracelet comes in a black, drawstring pouch with story card.
Crafted proudly in the USA by Laurel Elliott DVB New York.
DVB utilizes the “cire-perdue” or lost-wax casting method of jewelry creation. Lost-wax casting is actually an ancient method of jewelry production used in creating the finest jewelry. Owing to the nature of the technique and the hand finishing of each casting, small variations in dimension, weight and finish will occur.
