0℃ by JAM HOME MADE "4" Necklace (Size S)

■ An icy appearance, a wish for a warm heart.

In a world of ice, transparent crystals catch and reflect the light, radiating a rich, diamond-like, timeless brilliance. The beauty of the silence drifting within holds a dreamlike quality that makes one lose track of time, evoking a sense of harmony with nature. This "Freeze Product" offers more than just visual beauty; it embodies a wish for peace within that enchanting, frozen aesthetic.

An accessory encased within acrylic designed to resemble ice.

The "4" necklace is available in three sizes: S, M, and L.
It is perfect for personal wear or as a matching set for couples.
Global warming is driven by the massive release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels since the Industrial Revolution, causing the Earth's average temperature to steadily rise. Consequently, ancient ice in both the Antarctic and Arctic—dating back thousands of years—has begun to melt, and the pace of this melting is said to be accelerating.

Global warming impacts far more than just temperatures; it affects weather patterns, ecosystems, and human lives in diverse ways. The UN General Assembly adopted the SDGs in 2015, setting goals for humanity to achieve by 2030 to ensure our continued survival on Earth. Yet, we live in a world where heatstroke alerts are frequently issued in summer, and people fear the deadly heat. We must prevent temperatures from exceeding 40°C at all costs.

We created this piece by encasing the motif of the number "4" inside an ice-like form, infused with our prayers. It is a "Freeze Product" born of a paradox: a wish that the ice be melted not by rising temperatures caused by global warming, but by the warmth of a heart that cares for others.

Marking its 25th anniversary, JAM HOME MADE turns over a new leaf, launching a collection themed "25+1=NICOICHI" as its next step forward. It is a "Nicoichi" (two-into-one) collection that harmonizes elements—transforming the concept of "dangerous to mix" into "wonderful when mixed"—by bringing together things that would normally be incompatible.
The collection translates the concept of "wonderful when mixed" into decorative pieces. It draws inspiration from the unique sense of unity—born from a striking contrast—found when combining incompatible elements: whether it is the "overground" and "underground" (aristocrats vs. laborers, upscale neighborhoods vs. slums, guards vs. prisoners) or unexpected culinary pairings (salt on watermelon, pineapple on pizza, or even rings in potato salad).
The Japanese word for "wonderful" (*suteki*) actually contains the character for "enemy" (*teki*). This implies a level of excellence that compels one to acknowledge the merit of an adversary—a "bravo, even though you are the enemy" sentiment. It embodies a prayer for world peace, expressing the hope that two parties who could never mix might find common ground.
