His background in jewellery is present in Kaarna: glass and bronze are treated as complementary materials, with the bronze functioning almost like a setting around the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAround 1969 Sarpaneva explored this combination of glass and metal in Kaarna, Kelo and related designs, extending ideas familiar from jewellery into tableware and interior objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bronze decoration was produced by the Finnish jewellery company Turun Hopea. Each glass is signed P.S., for Pentti Sarpaneva.
