Brojanice – Traditional Serbian Orthodox prayer bracelets

The Brojanica is a handmade prayer bracelet used in the Serbian Orthodox Church to support the Jesus Prayer. It is passed through the fingers while repeatedly saying "Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me" to deepen concentration in prayer.

Traditionally made of knotted wool or natural beads, the brojanica symbolizes spiritual connection and serves as a silent companion in everyday life. It is worn by monks and believers to remember God's presence and find inner peace. Whether on the wrist or in the pocket, this prayer bracelet is an expression of the Orthodox faith and centuries-old Serbian tradition.
