Star Wars - Planetoid Valleys by Lapponia

In 1977, film director George Lucas, an avowed Lapponia fan, used two pieces from Böjrn Weckström's 1969 Space Silver collection in the final scene of his celebrated space opera.


 A necklace (Planetoid Valleys) and a Darina's bracelet were made in Finland and then teleported to a faraway galaxy for the adornment of Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher). In the history of space-time they are among the most famous artworks ever crafted on earth, thus sealing Lapponia's reputation for hauntingly beautiful statement pieces of silver jewellery.


Still in the collection today and two of the brand's best-selling designs, the price of Darina's bracelet is £495 and the Planetoid Valleys necklace, £1,885.
