Vintage brooch made by Aarikka, Finland. Crafted from painted wood and metal, this piece features a striking geometric composition: a long tapered bar balanced by a circular metal arc and a single wooden sphere. The slender wire creates the impression of an orbit, subtly circling the sphere and giving the brooch a sense of movement and spatial balance. The wooden ball, with its faint horizontal sheen, enhances the illusion like a small planet caught in motion.
