Thanks Thad, makes sense but I still don't find answer to my question.

How exactly do I link an IndividualProduct
{
  "@id": "https://graph.wwelves.org/704e3a57-c09e-4846-b27a-d31854096572"
  "@type": "IndividualProduct",
  "name": "A Fairphone currently used by elf Pavlik",
  "serialNumber": "2092043924022"
}

to the Product

{
  "@id": "https://www.fairphone.com/fairphone",
  "@type": "Product",
  "name": "The Fairphone"
}

?
