Meaning of the Mobius Design

This remarkable piece of jewelry employs the uniquely beautiful geometric form known as a Mobius strip, named after the talented German mathematician, August Ferdinand Mobius (1790-1868). The cleverly curved design of the Mobius strip appears to have one uninterrupted side or plane, allowing the bracelet or pendant to be inscribed with a surprisingly large number of meaningful
words.  

Quotations or prayers can be read without interruption on the entire length of the Mobius shape; both “sides” of the mobius piece magically become one. As such, it becomes an accepted symbol for infinity.

Since the infinite for many equates with the divine, Mobius jewelry is the perfect medium on which to inscribe prayers and other inspiring and memorable quotations which elevate and comfort the spirit.

Craftsmanship in Sterling Silver or 14 K Gold

All mobius style pieces are available in stunning sterling silver or striking 14 k yellow gold.

The Ancient Art of Making Fine Jewelry

Laurel Elliott DVB New York utilizes the “cire-perdue” or lost-wax casting method of jewelry creation. Lost-wax casting is actually an ancient method of jewelry production used in creating the finest jewelry. Owing to the nature of the technique and the hand finishing of each casting, small variations in dimension, weight and finish will occur.

Crafted proudly in the USA by Laurel Elliott DVB New York, designer of the original mobius bracelet and necklace.
