10 Years of Mobius

In 2025, CHIKAKO YAJIMA will celebrate its 10th anniversary.
At this turning point, the new "Mobius" series, which has the theme of mathematical beauty, has been released.

A decade of pursuit of aesthetic beauty. The origin of this lies in the world of "geometry" that he has been drawn to since his student days. Orderly beauty created by lines and surfaces, and simple forms with functionality. Among these, he chose the "Möbius strip" as his symbolic motif. The mysterious curve, with the front and back connected as one, evokes the flow of time, permanence, and infinity.

Inspired by this shape, we carved delicate grooves into the surface, carefully expressing the rhythm of light and shadow created by the twist. It stands quietly, yet has a strong presence that leaves a lasting impression. It is a minimalist and sophisticated piece of jewelry based on the idea of ​​stripping away design elements and leaving only the essential beauty.

The lineup includes three items: rings, earrings, and necklaces. At first glance, the ring looks like a chain, but the round parts are twisted together to create a three-dimensional design reminiscent of a Möbius strip. The earrings and necklace are made of high-quality 18K gold or platinum base metal with a single delicate diamond. They are not overly flashy, but they blend in with your everyday outfits while quietly asserting the beauty of their shapes.

In fact, Mobius designs originate from the ribbon necklaces that have been available since the brand's early days. I have been strongly attracted to geometric motifs since then, and the presence of artist Olafur Eliasson has also influenced me. His work is known for its experiential art that questions human perception and cognition while incorporating natural elements such as space, light, and water. I resonated with his minimalist yet profound expression, and my interest in "shapes that are lean and full of functional beauty" became solidified within me. Inspired by this, Mobius was sublimated into a tranquil form that has been stripped of all unnecessary elements. The surface is engraved with intricate grooves, creating a three-dimensional expression woven by light and shadow. From any angle, it exudes a soft yet dignified presence. The twisted and deep shape is a fusion of mathematical theory and sculptural beauty, truly a crystallization of functional beauty.

Also, because it is our 10th anniversary, we were particular about creating a design that can be worn casually on a daily basis. It has a timeless simplicity, but also a memorable form. We hope you will choose it as your own staple jewelry that you can love for a long time.

The "Mobius" series is a collection that looks back on the journey so far, and also symbolizes where CHIKAKO YAJIMA is heading in the future. A quiet presence and beautiful design for your daily life. Come experience its charm at our stores or online store.
