"I am the captain of my soul" - Your Choice of Sterling Silver, Brass, or Bronze for disk.
I find a lot of inspiration in this poem and it inspired this piece:
Invictus
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.

This 1" disc is cut in our shop from a sheet of your choice of metal, hand stamped with the phrase "I am the captain of my soul", tumbled for strength and then darkened. It is then polished by hand and given a lightly brushed / matte finish which we feel will help your piece looking its best the longest. Then a small, sterling silver captain's wheel charm is added and it's hung from your choice of 16 or 18" sterling silver chain.
