This striking brooch is an original 1960s-1970s piece by Finnish designer Kaija Aarikka, showcasing her flair for modernist design with a nautical twist. Measuring 6.5cm x 4cm, the brooch's wooden 'sail' silhouette is complemented by sleek metal lines, possibly silver-plated, which have developed a natural tarnish that adds to its vintage character.
While there is visible glue on the back, indicative of its age and handcrafted nature, this detail does not detract from the overall aesthetic. The piece is marked with Aarikka's signature, confirming its authenticity. This brooch is a testament to Aarikka's innovative use of organic materials and her contribution to the modernist movement in jewelry design.
