Boxwood Bracelet with the Verse of the Great Vow

Boxwood Bracelet Engraved with the Verse of the Great Vow

For those who want a personal touch in the accessories they wear, this bracelet is crafted from boxwood, a wood traditionally prized for fine furniture and household items. Each bead (excluding the parent bead and top bead) is deeply engraved with a phrase of Buddhist sutra text; read together in order clockwise, the full text forms the "Verse of the Great Vow" (Jūseige). Because the characters are carved deeply into the wood, they will not wear away with long use. Please note that the phrase engraved on the parent bead is decorative and is not part of the sutra text itself.
