This exceptionally rare bracelet is crafted from stamped solid sterling silver (925 stamped) and showcases an iconic design featuring Iku-Turso, a malevolent sea monster from Finnish mythology famously depicted in the Kalevala. Created by the renowned Finnish artist Germund Paaer in the early 1940s, this cuff is a unique piece of art and history.
The bracelet is not only visually striking but also functional, featuring a hinge closure with a clasp and pin mechanism. To open and close the cuff, you simply pull out the pin from the hinges. The attention to detail in both design and functionality adds to the allure of this rare piece.
Measuring between 5.5cm and 6cm in diameter, with a circumference of 19.4cm, this sterling silver Iku-Turso bracelet is not just a statement accessory; it's a tangible connection to Finnish mythology and the artistic legacy of Germund Paaer, making it a coveted collector's item for those who appreciate both craftsmanship and cultural significance.
