About the Item

Brass 1960-1970 Finland Seppo Tamminen Merkkikeskus Sorsa Necklace Producer Merkkikeskus Sorsa Finland 1960-1970 Necklace Similar Seppo Tamminen's jewelery is described in the book New Design in Jewelry by Donald J. Willcox Lenght 42cm (when opened) 1970s We now sell several Seppo Tamminen jewelery, see also our other jewelery for sale. Seppo Tamminen's rise to the forefront of jewelery makers was rapid, and by the 1970s, Seppo had consolidated its position. Pop art also made its mark on jewelery, but Seppo's work also showed Slavic influences. Seppo Ilmari Tamminen (September 20, 1944 Helsinki - July 25, 2012 Hämeenlinna) was a prolific Finnish jewelery and visual artist. Tamminen came to the attention of the art world in the 1960s with his jewelry. These subjects he got from nature, the shapes of flowers and curved leaves. After the unique jewelery, a barefoot Helsinki resident moved to Lope and founded the Järventausta Art Center. The exhibition activity ended at the time when Tamminen was attracted to Riihimäki to renovate his home and studio for the working population of the glass factory of the Hyttikortteli house in a residential area built at the beginning of the 20th century. Life did not settle until he discovered H. G. Paloheimo's Santamäki manor in Lopen Launos. In addition to jewelery, Tamminen is especially known for his sympathetic gouache paintings longing for the past world.
