A brooch sculpted from the highest quality solid 14ct Yellow gold. Featuring a fine textured finish that subdues reflections, enforcing the organic ambience that the artist intended. A human head appears from the edge of the sculpture placing the human form in a mysterious and magical world, reminding us of our place in an organic and perfectly imperfect environment. The piece is centred with a rectangular Australian Opal Triplet gemstone, alive with vivid flickers of blue, green, and yellow flame that shimmer in the light. The opal is the most unique and unparalleled gemstone, perfectly portraying nature and our world.

“Jewellery, to me, is a piece of sculpture.” — Björn Weckström
Lapponia is Finland’s most internationally recognised jewellery brand of the 1960s, designed by jewellery artist, sculptor, and painter Björn Weckström, born in Helsinki in 1935. A leading Modernist, Weckström draws inspiration from sculptural, organic forms, making every piece a work of art.
Today, many Lapponia pieces that once lay tucked away in boxes are finding new owners and new lives — continuing their stories into the future.
