Lapponia designers
From the start, Lapponia’s vision was to move away from the conservatism of traditional jewelry and offer wearers ground-breaking jewelry design. The company’s bold six decades have produced a great number of works which have become Finnish design classics. Lapponia’s sculptural jewelry takes wearers of these works of art to familiar and unfamiliar places, from the fells of Lapland to the silver-lined valleys of space.

“I envision jewelry as an extension of oneself; a sculptural expression of the human imagination and its place in the natural world.”
Martin Bergström
“Ancient and futuristic, organic and brutal – jewelry is not separate from the body.”
Björn Weckström
“A piece of jewelry is a miniature sculpture with the human body in the background.”
Chao-Hsien Kuo
“My jewelry reflects my love for nature and passion for creating.”
Christophe Burger
“Jewelry is never an end in itself but a means whose poetic and culture-laden message always calls for communication.”
Liesbeth Busman
“Jewelry is like nature. By closer view it reveals a variety of details and contrasts.”
Pekka Hirvonen
“My aim as a designer is to create beautiful things that express the personality of the wearer with the jewelry that he or she is wearing.”

“Jewelry connects its wearer to a specific time, place and people.”
