Fun and well crafted pendant and chain by Elis Kauppi for Kupittaan Kulta. Part of a series he created in the 1970's, this is the more rare from the series, with it featuring two cats and not as a cutout in a flat rectangular panel. The "NB" mark stands for Nina Breddal or Nina B of the UK as having imported this piece from Finland to the UK. Still retains it's original Kauppi Kupittaan chain, which is also quite rare these days. The pendant has been professionally polished and looks almost new! Both are in excellent condition. I have dubbed them the "Love Cats" like the song from The Cure.

Great collector's piece.
