45 grams. The Kubos is built by aggregating cubic modules — identical units that accumulate into a larger volume, with the steps and recesses of their fit left on display.

For those who love a system. It’s the most rational necklace in the collection: you can read the rule that formed it just by looking. It especially appeals to people who work in design, and it’s the one most in dialogue with the brand’s name.

The clasp is magnetic: bring the ends together and it closes.

The formal principle. The cube is the most elementary module of construction — and aggregating cubes is the simplest operation in spatial geometry. The Kubos takes that operation to the point where repeating an ordinary form produces a volume that is anything but ordinary.

FAQ

Is it plastic?
It’s PLA, a polymer made from a renewable plant source — it doesn’t come from petroleum. That is what allows a piece at this scale to exist: the same form in silver would weigh over 400 g and be impossible to wear.

If it’s biodegradable, will it fall apart over time?
No. PLA only breaks down in industrial composting, under controlled heat and humidity. In a drawer and in everyday wear, it is stable for years.

Is it easy to close on my own?
Yes. The clasp is magnetic — bring the two ends together and it closes. No mirror, no fumbling behind your neck, no asking for help.

I have a pacemaker. Can I wear it?
The piece contains a magnet. Anyone with a pacemaker or defibrillator should consult their doctor first.

Can it get wet?
No. Take it off to shower and swim, and keep it away from pools and the sea. The cord is waxed cotton and shouldn’t be soaked.

How long is it?
The photos show the piece being worn, which is the best reference for where it sits on the body. If you have any doubts about the length before buying, talk to us.

How long until it arrives?
If it’s in stock, it ships the same day. Made to order, it’s ready in 1 to 3 business days.

Details

How does it close?

A magnetic clasp, printed here in the studio. The cord is waxed cotton.

I have a pacemaker. Can I wear it?

The clasp is magnetic. If you have a pacemaker or another implanted device, talk to your doctor first.

How long until it leaves the studio?

Ready-to-ship pieces leave as soon as payment is confirmed. Made-to-order pieces take one to three business days.

Is this plastic?

It doesn't come from petroleum. The piece is printed in PLA, a plant-based polymer — the same material across all of the studio's production.

Can it get wet?

Best not. Take the piece off to wash your hands, shower or swim, and leave it out of the pool and the beach. Store it dry, away from sunlight.

Can it take heat?

Up to 50 °C. Above that, PLA softens — the dashboard of a closed car in the sun goes over 60 °C, so don't leave the piece there.
