Szüksége lesz egy papírcsíkra (vagy egy zsinórra, cipőfűzőre), egy tollra és egy vonalzóra.
- Tekerje a csíkot a csuklója köré, közvetlenül a csuklócsont fölött, simulósan, de nem szorosan.
- Jelölje meg tollal azt a pontot, ahol a vége átfedi a csíkot.
- Fektesse le a csíkot egyenesen, és mérje le a végétől a jelig: ez a csuklója kerülete.
- Keresse meg a csuklókerületét az alábbi táblázatban, és olvassa le a karkötő hosszát, testhez simulóan vagy lazábban.
Van már jól illeszkedő karkötője? Fektesse le egyenesen, zárt csattal, mérje le végétől végéig, és rendelje meg ezt a hosszt.
Nincs kéznél vonalzó? Egy bankkártya 8,6 cm hosszú: számolja meg, hányszor fér rá a csíkra.

How to wear it
Polished 8 mm wood beads in warm reddish tones run to a large two-sided Saint Benedict medal in a gold-tone rim. The sliding cord adjusts to the wrist, so you can wear it snug for work or looser on the weekend. It looks natural with a casual shirt, a linen jacket or beside a leather-strap watch.

Questions
What are Saint Benedict beads?
Prayer beads or a bracelet that carry the Saint Benedict medal. This one has 8 mm wood beads and a large two-sided medal.
How does the sliding cord of The Benedict Wood Beads close?
With a sliding closure: pull the cord ends to tighten it on the wrist and push the knot back to loosen it. It adjusts to most adult wrists.
Can the wood beads of The Benedict Wood Beads get wet?
It is wiser not to. Water can dull the wood and loosen the cord, so keep the bracelet dry.
What is on each side of the medal?
Saint Benedict on the front, and the cross with the initials of its Latin prayers on the back.
Which side of the Benedict Wood Beads medal should face out?
Either one. The medal is two-sided, the saint on one face and the cross with the initials of his prayer on the other; it is worn as a sign of trust in God, not as a charm.
Do the 8 mm wood beads of The Benedict Wood Beads look natural on a man?
Yes. The warm reddish wood and the large medal give a natural look, light on the wrist and easy to pair with a watch.

The prayer
Crux sacra sit mihi lux, non draco sit mihi dux. Vade retro Satana, numquam suade mihi vana. Sunt mala quae libas, ipse venena bibas. (May the holy cross be my light; let not the dragon be my guide. Begone, Satan, never suggest vain things to me. What you offer is evil; drink the poison yourself.)
Prayer of the Saint Benedict medal, in Latin with its English translation

Its meaning
Two faces of the Saint Benedict medal
Saint Benedict, the sixth-century monk of Nursia, wrote the Rule that shaped monastic life in the West. One face of his medal shows him holding the cross and that Rule. The other carries the cross with the initials of a Latin prayer: may the holy cross be my light, let not the dragon be my guide, begone Satan. Catholics wear it as a sign of trust in God and to ask his help against evil and temptation. Here a large two-sided medal, silver-tone in a gold-tone rim, hangs from polished wood beads in warm reddish...
Giving it as a gift
