Björn Weckström on Jewelry as Sculpture, Art and Power

Finnish nature is reflected in my formal language. My goal when I create for Lapponia is to make something totally new, totally different and to add three dimensionality to jewelry, to make small sculptures. When I see a final piece where everything is right, that is a moment of joy.
