Vntg ELIS KAUPPI d Finland Silver Kupittaan Kulta 925S Kinetic Modernist Pendant

With identifying marks found along the side: stamped anvil (for Kupittaan Kulta), 925S and FINLAND. It measures 1/2" x 5/8" x 2 1/2 long (including wide ring bail which will accommodate up to a 7 mm chain or cording for suspension) and weighs 17.63 g (1/2+ ozt) on a digital scale prior to packing. Nice condition with some oxidation but no condition issues of note. It was sourced second hand from a San Francisco Bay area vintage wares market.

Please refer to images for your take on age, design and condition. Without a date code - best guesstimate of craft date is from the early to mid 1970's, give or take a few years either way.

Seemingly a rarer design, only one (other) example with different stone turned up during an in-depth google search - and that particular piece was found by image only. Likely meant to be worn'long' on a rolo link chain of medium gauge. This piece is very different in a good sort of way; nice to touch and turn in the hand with its movable parts housed in a sleek and modern design even though it is not new it is super nice and has an appealing presentation.
