Be as a bird - silver poem bracelet

Description

A story bracelet, based on a quote by Victor Hugo:

Be as a bird that, pausing on her flight awhile on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, and yet sings, knowing that she hath wings.

Following the sentiment of the quote, the bracelet reminds the wearer to 'not worry' when times get difficult as we have the strength and capabilities within us - like the bird knowing she has wings.

It makes a wonderful gift for someone who is going through a difficult time right now - or to someone who is often prone to worrying! It is that little nudge to trust and believe in yourself.

Hand sculpted in fine silver,the bracelet is composed of 9 squares which shows a bird flying....landing on a branch...singing...then the branch breaks....but the bird keeps singing as she knows she can fly.

The bracelet is 7 3/4 inches (20cm) long and is secured with a fold over type sterling silver clasp.
