ST. FRANCIS PRAYER
Sterling Silver Mobius Bracelet
How can all of a 52-word prayer fit on a single bracelet? Because it's stamped onto a Möbius strip, a circular "plane without end" having only one surface. Accepted as a sign for infinity, it is also an ideal symbol for prayer. Oval shape is 2 3/4" by 2 1/2" in diameter; band is 1/4" wide; fits up to an 8" wrist. Sterling silver, 1/2 ounce. Includes attractive gift box and info card.
