That S thing from your notebook margins is now fancy jewelry
It’s hard to describe “that S thing”: It’s like a never-ending Moebiüs strip, but blockier instead of the traditional twisted ribbon shape? It seems like it should be punk but it doesn’t really have anything to do with that? And everyone knows what it looks like.

Westies & Co. specializes in blending 3D printing and quirky pop culture references; check out the model for their weird-cute Gudetama necklace:

Loving the nostalgia kick but looking to express it another way? Westies & Co. aren’t the only creatives taking notice of that S thing.

Long live that S thing, and if anyone knows what it actually is/its origin, please reach out.
