Carpe Diem Bracelet

This sterling silver bracelet is finely engraved with the Latin quotation ?Carpe Diem?, which translates to ?Seize the day?. <br> <br> The elliptical shape of the bracelet is known as a M?bius strip, after the German mathematician August Ferdinand M?bius [1790-1868]. It represents the seeming paradox of a plane without end, or one of infinite length. As such it became accepted as a symbol for infinity, an appropriate and symbolic form for this memorable inscription. <br> <br> The bracelet forms part of a range of poesy jewellery available in the Pompeii range (poesy jewellery is jewellery decoratively inscribed with short poems or sentiments). As such it is ideal as a gift.

A sterling silver bangle inscribed with the Latin phrase Carpe Diem.

Carpe Diem translates to English as “Seize the Day”, and both have been finely inscribed onto the bangle in block capitals along with the days of the week in both English and Latin.

The shape of the bracelet is known as a Möbius Strip after the German mathematician August Ferdinand Möbius (1790-1868). It represents the seeming paradox of a plane with no end, and as such has become accepted as the symbol for infinity.

A beautiful and inspiring gift.
