Description
This is a fine example of the iconic Anna Greta Eker Solv Shell or Dragon Scale Scandinavian mid-century modernism jewelry made between 1960 and 1968. It is adjustable ring size, very well executed and still has its original darkened finish between the scales. Ring size as you see it in the photo is size 7. Size can be very carefully adjust up or down by 1 size and best to get it done by a jeweler in order to retain the balance of the design. Weight is heavy at 14.5 grams. It sits flat across the finger line with the edge curing up and outward. The scales are highly noticeable as Eker PLUS workshop production from the 60s. Top of ring measures measure 5/8″ across the center north to south. Width across the finger is just about 7/8″ measured east to west on the ring top. Other than some light surface age wear it is in excellent overall condition. No dents or dings or tears or deep scratches. Never altered. All original. A beautiful rare and hard to find Eker dragon scales ring for your Scandinavian mid century modern jewelry collection.

- General Production: Most pieces bearing her “AGE” hallmark alongside the PLUS/Norway Designs stamp fall strictly into the mid-century modern 1960s–1970s window.
