Overview
Vintage earrings by Aarikka, Finland. Crafted from painted wood and metal, this pair combines saturated natural colors with a clean, vertical rhythm. The design is light, balanced and immediately recognisable as Scandinavian.
Design and Materials
Each earring is composed of stacked wooden elements: a warm red sphere anchors the form, paired with smaller beads in deep blue, green and natural yellow. The matte finish softens the color contrasts and allows the wood grain to remain visible. Simple metal hooks keep the structure open and wearable.
Style Context
The design reflects Aarikka’s approach to jewelry as small scale sculpture: clear shapes, restrained repetition, and a quiet sense of play. These earrings work equally well as an everyday accent or as a subtle statement within a minimal outfit.
Measurements
Length (including hook): approx. 4 cm
Condition
Very good vintage condition.
