Vintage Modernist 18k Gold and Pearl Ring by Björn Weckström for Lapponia

Sale price$0.00

This enigmatic modernist ring by Björn Weckström for Lapponia features two serene pearls of differing sizes balanced upon an organic foundation of luminous 18k gold. The band has a compelling texture like roughly-hewn stone, while the surface behind the pearls is ringed as if lapped away by the sea. The shoulders are split and layered asymmetrically before transitioning to a broad low plain band around the back of the ring. Weckström’s pieces, with the organic shapes and brutalist textures, are instantly recognizable, and this is a particularly delightful one!
