Jacob & Co. continues to redefine the boundaries of high jewelry through its latest collaboration with global icon G-DRAGON. The luxury jeweler and the artist have unveiled the “Bandana Royale,” a singular, sculptural jeweled collar created exclusively for G-DRAGON’s 2025 Übermensch World Tour and his appearance at the Melon Music Awards. The piece transforms the musician’s signature bandana motif into an audacious expression of wearable art.
Crafted from 559.3 grams of 18K yellow gold, the collar exemplifies Jacob & Co.’s technical mastery and maximalist approach to design. It is set with an extraordinary 209.71 carats of gemstones, anchored by a 5.40-carat Fancy Yellow round brilliant-cut diamond at its center. Surrounding the focal stone are more than 2,000 white natural diamonds, complemented by an intricate pavé of rubies, emeralds, and multicolored sapphires that lend depth and chromatic intensity to the piece.

A defining detail of the Bandana Royale is the inclusion of a jeweled daisy motif, a symbol closely associated with G-DRAGON’s creative universe and personal philosophy. Integrated seamlessly into the collar’s complex structure, the daisy serves as both a visual anchor and a personal signature, reinforcing the intimate connection between artist and object.
The Bandana Royale represents a new milestone in the ongoing partnership between Jacob & Co. and G-DRAGON. It follows their previous collaborations, including a bespoke Astronomia timepiece and the PEACEMINUSONE jewelry collection, further cementing their shared commitment to fearless experimentation, individuality, and the fusion of music, fashion, and high jewelry.
