Gold Inspirations : Jewellery Style Magazine

lapponia

Founded in Finland in 1960, in the wake of a new age of free-form, free spirited fine jewellery, jewel house Lapponia has always taken a bold, modernist sculptural design route, inspired by the rich and rugged shapes and surfaces of gold nuggets found in Finnish Lapland. Now, for 2007, French artist-jeweller Christophe Burger, reworks Lapponia's distinctive molten-gold style, with graphic, chaotic linear patterns etched on rich gold surfaces, for his playfully named Ano rings and his Circlin bracelets. As he explains, "Wearing jewellery sends a non-verbal message to other people. This message is both unique and universal. It always refers to our humanity."
