I.V.X.L.C.D.M: Expressing Yamanashi-Made Quality Through Simple Elegance

Founded in Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture in 2007, the creator unit "I.V.X.L.C.D.M" derives its name from the Roman numerals for 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500, and 1000. In 2009, they presented a collection in Paris, generating significant buzz as a representation of Japanese creation.

While I.V.X.L.C.D.M began with a collective of jewelry artisans, it now features Tetsuya Ueshima, who designs numerous domestic and international men's jewelry pieces, as its designer, presenting globally-appealing designs.

Furthermore, Tetsuya Ueshima has supported AKM's creative endeavors since the production of the "Premium mesh belt collection," one of AKM's signature works. This background led to the realization of the AKM SPECIAL JEWELRY COLLECTION "AKM made by IVXLCDM."

We draw attention to AKM's distinctive jewelry designs, which showcase a powerful and beautiful style, utilizing only materials of uncompromising quality, regardless of cost.
