Designed by Pentti Sarpaneva for Turun Hopea, this 1960s silver ring comes from his iconic Pitsi (Finnish for "lace") series. The design mimics the delicate, openwork look of antique lace, translated into bold, textured silver. It’s a perfect example of Sarpaneva’s ability to combine traditional inspiration with modernist, Brutalist style.
