Streetwear and high jewelry are colliding once again in a celebration of cultural history. JOOPITER, the digital auction house founded by Pharrell Williams, has unveiled a limited-edition Jacob & Co. x HUMAN MADE Heart Pendant. Priced at $1,400 USD, the piece takes NIGO‘s recognizable HUMAN MADE heart logo and elevates it through Jacob & Co.’s signature craftsmanship. Beyond the brilliant finish, the pendant serves as a wearable monument to a 30-year friendship that fundamentally reshaped the worlds of fashion, music, and luxury.
The story behind the pendant dates back to the turn of the millennium. Before Billionaire Boys Club or ICECREAM existed, NIGO was already an admirer of Pharrell’s boundary-pushing jewelry. NIGO would frequently visit Jacob Arabo, bringing photos of Pharrell’s custom pieces and commissioning his own versions in different shades of gold. Recognizing the striking synchronicity in their tastes and creative energy, Jacob arranged an introduction between the two visionaries. That single meeting sparked a lifelong friendship and a creative alliance that brought BAPE to the U.S. and laid the blueprint for the modern luxury-streetwear crossover.
The release of this collaborative pendant coincides with JOOPITER’s latest high-profile auction, Objects of Brilliance: From the Collection of Pharrell Williams and Jacob Arabo. Running from February 17 through March 5, the auction features 30 extraordinary lots spanning three decades of Pharrell and Jacob’s partnership. While the auction itself includes multi-million dollar, one-of-a-kind pieces (including a lavish diamond-and-ruby version of the HUMAN MADE heart that converts into a brooch), this $1,400 USD pendant offers fans a more accessible way to own a piece of this historic partnership.
The limited-edition Jacob & Co. x HUMAN MADE x JOOPITER Heart Pendant releases on February 18 at 9 p.m. EST. It will be available for a limited time across three platforms including JOOPITER, HUMANMADE and Jacob & Co.
