NON × by Preek draws seven jewellery pieces in water: rippled rings and ribbon brooches

A ribbon can resemble flowing water, and a ring can hold bubbles on its surface. Actor and artist NON has collaborated with by Preek on seven jewellery designs, scheduled for November 20, 2026 at Japanese BEAUTY&YOUTH UNITED ARROWS stores and the official online shop, with preorders already open. Her sketches and ideas become metal at ¥8,910–¥14,960, changing the relationship between clothes and body over a small area.

Water is a method of bending metal, not just a motif

Ripples, flowing curves and light bubbles inspire the collection, rather than water drops simply drawn on flat plates. The Water Flow brooch develops from NON’s line sketches, with curved surfaces moving light between raised and recessed areas. Rings combine flowing outlines with round details. Turning form matters most, revealing different lines from the front and at an angle.

Ribbons recurring in NON’s work also meet the image of waves. Brooches and ear cuffs keep the recognisable idea of a knot while their surfaces undulate instead of forming flat strips. A familiar soft object becomes a metal shape held in one position. The tension between softness and hardness is among the collaboration’s clearest signatures.

Where could a brooch begin on your clothes?

Promotional images place brooches on tailoring, collars and coats, showing how a small object can redirect attention. Bright metal creates a stopping point on dark clothing; beside fine shirt stripes, curves contrast with regular lines. No complete wardrobe change is necessary: decide whether attention should stop at chest, collar or hand.

Fastening depends on cloth thickness, however, so check weight and pin construction in product information. A thin shirt and thick coat cannot be judged through the same promotional photograph; ear cuffs and rings also require opening and size checks. Starting with placement and personal habits, then comparing gold and silver tones, makes long-term use easier than copying an entire outfit.

316L describes a material, with personal conditions still relevant

All seven designs use 316L stainless steel, familiar in jewellery intended for durable everyday use. The name helps comparison but cannot guarantee nobody will have an allergic reaction. Metal-sensitive wearers should check surface treatments and individual circumstances. The visible quality here is one material becoming waves, ribbons and circles, rather than identification through a large logo.

By Preek is PREEK’s accessories line and invited NON to participate in her first substantial jewellery collaboration. November 20 is the planned release, while preorder status and sizing depend on official information. To fit jewellery into an existing wardrobe, start with a frequently worn collar or coat: how a water-like curve introduces a turn into otherwise straight clothing is the useful question this collection opens.
