Aslak Siri, Silba-Áilo of Guovdageaidnu took one of the pre-versions and made into a brooch, one single item (32/51 mm), I believe, and the only person I know has one is my colleague Trygve Lund Guttormsen of Máze.

Later the family symbol was cast by Peter Rust ( or was it Singer?) (large version 54/51 mm in gold, silver & bronze)

I struck a deal with Franz Singer, Guovdageaidnu, to cast my design (a smaller silver version 28/31x27 mm+ chain) as a commercial piece. And it became a success, since it is still in demand.

I had made a bronze version with radial background 43/43 mm of a wooden decoration I made for Deanu Library in 1982, and later made a wood block print of it, MU 9123. It was cast by Peter Rust in a limited edition of 250.

My latest design (27/28 mm) was to make the logo for NANA, International Festival of Indigenous People (Romsa, 1997-2004) as a pendant. One silver version was given Buffy Sainte Marie as she had a concert here in October 2000. Later I had one cast in gold on titanium, made, like the silver version, by Anu Forselius of Unjárga. Should I continue this branch?

When in the early 1970s Silba-Áilu (Aslak Siri) of Guovdageaidnu, just completed his apprenticeship, and starting as an independent silver smith, (the first Sámi as such that I know about, at least), he asked me to make some designs that he could use. 

So I sat down and sketched, and developed the now well know "family symbol" of mine, based on Sámi drum figures (basically a development of the Bieggolmmái figure), it struck a cord within him. It has later been wrongly taken for an original ancient symbol, and I can't help but take some pride in that fact. However, Silba-Áilo took one of the pre-versions and made into a brooch, one single item, I believe, and the only person I know has one is my colleague Trygve Lund Guttormsen of Máze.

If any of you are interested in owning one of these, please contact me, and we might work something out…
