Aarikka Finland | “Orbit” wood earrings

Overview

Vintage earrings by Aarikka, Finland, made from wood and metal. The pair has a light open form with a round metal hoop and a straight central bar made from polished metal and dark warm wood.

The shape is unusual and very graphic. A circle, a line and small wooden cylinders create a clean composition that feels both playful and precise. The earrings are light to wear, but visually strong.

Design

The contrast of materials gives these earrings their character. The metal parts catch the light, while the wooden elements bring warmth and natural texture. The wood has a dark brown tone with visible grain, adding a softer handmade detail to the clear geometric form.

Aarikka is known for Finnish wooden jewelry with simple shapes, warm materials and a strong sense of rhythm. This pair fits that tradition well, but the metal hoop makes the design more architectural and modern.
