Find Out MoreLapponia was founded in the 1960s by two men, entrepreneur and visionary Pekka Anttila and gifted jewellery designer artist Björn Weckström. Together these men pushed the boundaries of jewellery design in the 1960s gaining global attention. This ring is a good example of Björn Weckström’s work and is unusual in that it is a mix of 18ct75% pure gold (or 750 parts pure gold and 250 parts other metals) yellow gold and a tiny bit of 18ct white goldWhite gold is an alloy of gold and at least one other white metal - most often nickel or palladium (both of which act as a bleaching agent to reduce the natural yellow colour of the gold).. Weckström’s aim is to portray the Finnish landscape, hence the unique finish found on his jewellery that is reminiscent of the craggy rocks and cool icy fjords. This ring has a rich colour and highly textured finish. It is like wearing a piece of sculpture on your finger. These pieces are already collectors items and will survive the test of time.
