About MeThe MÖBIUS sterling silver brooch is inspired by geometry and a magnificent example of post-modern innovation. It dates from the launch of the MOBIUS range in 1968 and was designed by Vivianna Torun Bulow-Hube. In mathematical terms, a MÖBIUS is a shape with one surface and one edge. The Mobius collection is built upon this fascinating shape, rendered with distinction in each separate piece. It is a fluid and infinite shape that is provocative and inspiring.More About Me
