A super unique Finnish Modernist pendant necklace by sought after designer Elis Kauppi, for you to drool over.
Two large arced wedges of silver meet along a central rod that bisects the oval pendant form. Seemingly floating in the center are 4 faceted clear quartz crystals. The well-sized pendant hangs from a trio of flat circular links which easily fit over the included UnoAErre biker link chain.
Pendant measures 35.2mm wide x 46.3mm length overall with rings. Piece is signed and dated for maker and year with complete Finnish hallmarks for silver purity and location.
Elis Kauppi set Finland on the map for Modernist jewelry design in the 1950s and 1960s. He started his own company, Kupittaan Kulta, when has was only 24 years old.
Piece is in excellent vintage condition with normal age related wear.

Customer Reviews
I saw it. I fell in love with it. I had to have it. With a short text and a phone call to Jill, it became mine. I truly did not think that it would be possible for me to wear this beautiful piece as the original rolo-link chain that the stone hung from was only 16.5 inches in length. I needed at least a 20 inch chain. Undaunted, Jill told me that she would look for a longer chain in the same rolo-link style but with a lobster clasp that I prefer. Not long after I received a video showcasing the longer chain that Jill had found to replace the original shorter one. Jill’s video contained dialogue with close-ups of the chain as she dangled it over and through her fingers. After giving her my enthusiastic approval, I had the pendant on the new longer chain within a day or two, and it was perfect. I wore my beautiful quartz pendant for the first time on Mother’s Day and received several compliments on it. Thank you, Jill, for making my wish come true. ❤️
