This is a lovely sterling silver Modernist ring, c. 1960s. It is very likely Lapponia, but the hallmarks are difficult to make out. "Made in Finland" is legible, together with Finnish hallmarks that appear to be Lapponia. There is another mark that I can't read underneath "Made in Finland". Nonetheless, it is certainly of the style and quality of Lapponia. The ring is 11/16" at the widest point, is in excellent condition and the size can be adjusted.
