14k Gold & Rock Crystal Earrings by Elis Kauppi for Kupittaan Kulta, Finland

These beautiful Modernist earrings each feature solid 14k gold that frames a facetted rock crystal (clear quartz). The rare pair were designed by the famous Elis Kauppi and made by his workshop Kupittaan Kulta. 

Elis Kauppi (1924-2004) is known for his sophisticated Modernist designs that incorporated stones native to Finland. His innovative approach that centred on simplicity and form, put Finland at the forefront of jewellery design during the mid-century period. Kauppi's work has been exhibited internationally, including Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris and the Pforzheim Jewellery Museum in Germany.

Each earring is stamped with the Finnish hallmarks: Anvil motif (maker), crown motif (Helsinki) & '585' (14k gold). 

They are in excellent vintage condition (outstanding for age) with perfect stones that sit firmly in their settings. The hooks retain their original shape well and the clasps function perfectly.

The earrings are 21mm long and each stone has a 10mm diameter.
