I wanted this bracelet mostly because of the excellent quote, and the engraving is very nice, but I was disappointed because it is very narrow (about 9 mm) and kind of reminds me of hospital bracelets. Also, if worn with other pieces of jewelry it gets covered or “swallowed” and outshined by these. Although overall nice, I think it could be a little wider, it doesn’t look as good as in the picture, and I find it overpriced. Buy it for the words, if not for the presentation.

I purchased this bracelet for my Mother for Christmas. She and my Dad have had the most trying year, with a lay-off, financial issues, family issues, health issues, and more. I felt that the best gift I could give her would be the gift of inspiration. She has worn it every day since I gave it to her and always tells me how much she loves it. Complete strangers stop her to read it and everyone wants to know where she got it. Even my 16 year old daughter wants one. I think I will buy one for all of myfriends this year.

…a bit light. I was expecting a little more silver for this price. However, it looks great and the writing is clear and legible.

This is a beautiful piece of jewelry…every time I wear it, someone else wants to know where they can get one. I love silver, and the brushed silver is just beautiful. It isn’t heavy, but I think it’s well worth the price. I got mine for a present from my mil, and I am now purchasing one for my sister and mom. It easily bends, but I like that I can adjust it to my smaller than usual wrist, then open it up to get it off, as opposed to not being able to adjust it.

I ordered mine as a gift but had it sent to me just to be safe and so that I could see it. I am very pleased with the actual product. It appears as pictured above, without any damage as another reviewer had noted (though I think the packaging could have been stronger from this Amazon partner.)
The quote from Emerson speaks a profound truth and I wish I could give this to everyone I know!
