Description
An exceptional, investment-grade collector’s piece of Scandinavian studio jewelry. This modernist sterling silver brooch features a beautifully stylized, curling woodland fox handcrafted by the renowned Swedish artist, painter, and silversmith Letti Rapp (b. 1942).

The piece showcases expert bench work, pairing a sleek, satin-polished silver face against a deeply chased, heavily textured tail that realistically mimics thick winter fur. The reverse features a dual-function mechanism, allowing it to be pinned securely as a brooch via its extended safety pin, or threaded through the integrated top loop to be worn as a pendant necklace.

Artist profile card English translation:

Letti Rapp was born in 1942 and grew up on Rådmansö, north of Stockholm. It is not difficult to feel a closeness to nature when looking at artwork by Letti Rapp, perhaps because they are a part of us, and that part of nature which is essential to our existence. See less
