A reminder that nothing stays forever
"This too shall pass" has comforted people for centuries. A well-known legend ties it to King Solomon, whose ring was engraved with the phrase to humble him in good times and steady him in hard ones. It says the trouble in front of you will not last, and it gently reminds you to savor the good while it is here. Our This Too Shall Pass jewelry keeps that wisdom on your hand or wrist, in English and in the Hebrew גם זה יעבור (gam zeh yaavor).
The collection includes spinner rings you can turn when you need to steady yourself, and bangles you can wear through any season.
A spinner ring for the hard moments
The This Too Shall Pass spinner ring has an outer band that turns freely. When the day feels heavy, you give it a slow spin, breathe, and remember the phrase engraved on it. It is a small, private habit that fits the meaning.
The collection includes the gold-and-silver spinner and The Eli spinner ring, both carrying גם זה יעבור.
A bangle that carries the phrase every day
If you prefer your reminder on your wrist, the This Too Shall Pass bangle holds the Hebrew phrase in a simple everyday band. It stacks well and makes a meaningful gift for someone walking through a loss, a recovery, or a stressful stretch.
Every piece is handcrafted to order by The Honest Jeweler, a Jewish-owned shop, in real, solid metal.
Hebrew engraving, done right
When a piece carries Hebrew, the letters have to be correct. We proof the exact גם זה יעבור lettering with you before we make the piece, and we craft it in real, solid metal, sterling silver through 14k and 18k gold, never plated unless labeled. For more meaning-driven pieces, see our Hebrew spinner rings, spinner rings, and Let Go and Let God jewelry.
