In the first series, he often dons a black coat with two gold buttons on the left side, a white headband and two red fans (each with a femur bone pattern) when he's cheerleading.

Chite's Jewel Charm is hexagon-shaped. Its first seen in the anime first serie with a base yellow color (first picture), in Jewelpet Twinkle☆ and the series after the first one, its base color is light brown (2nd picture). His Jewel Charm has a light red bow tied to a sports bag, which labels "Sports". It is decorated with several malachites, with four on the bag, two on the bow, two on each sides of the base, and a large one hanging from the bottom-middle of the bow.
