Notable details visible on the item include the central white pearl-like accent, the curved stem, and the openwork cutouts between the three lobes. The visible signs of age include a small amount of wear to the stem on the front, while the silver-gilt on the reverse is in good order. The brooch measures 4.5 cm high and 4 cm wide. It is worn as an accessory on clothing.

FAQs

Scandinavian enamel jewellery gained widespread international popularity during the mid-20th century, particularly from Norwegian and Danish workshops. Renowned silversmiths combined traditional enamelling techniques with modernist, nature-inspired forms.

These pieces are typically constructed from sterling silver (often stamped 925S) with a layer of gold plating known as vermeil. The decorative surface features vitreous glass enamel applied over engine-turned or cast silver textures.

Authentic items feature makers marks or hallmarks denoting origin, silver purity (such as 925S or 830S), and maker initials. Look for precise guilloche patterning beneath smooth, undamaged enamel surfaces.

Enamel brooches can be worn on coat lapels, heavy knitwear, blazers, or silk scarves to add subtle colour and structure. Grouping multiple small pins together on a jacket or handbag is another modern approach.

Clean gently with a soft, lint-free cloth, avoiding liquid silver polishes or ultrasonic cleaners which can damage vitreous enamel. Store flat in a dry environment separated from other jewellery to prevent scratching.
