This one’s for the jewellery lovers. JOOPITER has unveiled a new collaborative piece uniting Jacob & Co. and HUMAN MADE, the label founded by NIGO. The Heart Pendant forms part of the recently announced auction, Objects of Brilliance: From the Collection of Pharrell Williams and Jacob Arabo, and arrives as both jewellery and cultural artefact.
The design reinterprets HUMAN MADE’s signature heart motif through Jacob & Co.’s high-polish precision. Compact yet declarative, the pendant balances streetwear iconography with fine-jewellery craftsmanship — intended as an everyday piece, but rooted in collectibility.
Beyond aesthetics, the collaboration reflects a longstanding creative relationship. It was Jacob Arabo who first introduced NIGO to Pharrell Williams in the early 2000s, recognising a shared sensibility between the two. That introduction would prove formative. Williams and NIGO went on to launch Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream, expand BAPE’s global presence and redefine the intersection of streetwear and luxury long before the categories formally converged.
Over the past 30 years, Williams and Arabo have collaborated on more than 100 custom pieces, shaping a distinct genre of jewellery that merged technical innovation with cultural currency. The Heart Pendant nods to that origin story — a small object carrying the weight of a pivotal introduction that influenced fashion, music and design.
The limited-edition piece is currently available at Sincere Fine Watches and Sincere Haute Horlogerie at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.
