I found this today, it is a peice of 60's-70's Findland modernist jewelry in bronze. Its either by Pentti Sarpaneva or Hannu Ikonen I believe, probably the former. I'm very excited about it, I think its extremely attractive! I'm deffinitely keeping this one for my collection. Does anyone else have examples of this Finnish bronze modernist stuff to share?

Love the new photos too! I'm still looking around for info..
Thanks! I did a pretty intensive search to find the designer, the only person who stood out was Sarpaneva, but his work is all signed apparently. Its not marked ANYWHERE. Does the design ring any bells with you Vertraio?
I still think Pentti, but no decisive info yet.
I have placed a pendant of the same designer I believe. Please take a look.
