B J O R N W E C K S T R O M Bjorn Weckstrom is an internationally recognized sculptor/jeweler. He won the Lunning Prize in 1968. His "sculptural cufflinks and rings play with volumes and surfaces, alternating the light reflections on shiny and matt silver." One of his space series pieces, a necklace titled "Planetary Valleys" was worn by Princess Leila in the 1977 "Star Wars" movie. Weckstrom's work has been featured in museum shows in many countries.

| BJORN WECKSTROM 18K GOLD RING | ||||
![]() |
||||
|
An
elegant 18K gold ring by Bjorn Weckstrom; about size 12; marked with the
Lapponia stamp, "750, LAPPONIA, FINLAND, BJORN" and import marks that I
believe are for London; date marks are obscured, though I can see a "7";
surface is in fine condition; band is slightly out of round in the back
and the gold is slightly thinner there, perhaps it has been sized; an
overall beautiful ring! |

Weckstrom 14K gold pin with beautifully faceted smoky quartz; about 1-1/2" x
