FAQs

Norwegian guilloche enamel jewellery features sterling silver silver-gilt bases engraved with intricate geometric or engine-turned patterns, which are then coated in layers of translucent vitreous enamel to reflect light.

Mid-century Norwegian brooches typically consist of high-grade sterling silver (often stamped 925S or 925), gold plating, and vitreous enamel made from fused powdered glass.

Authentic pieces carry makers marks or initials, purity stamps such as 925S, and country markings like NORWAY, along with fine, clear engine-turned patterns under smooth enamel.

Attach the brooch to a tailored blazer lapel, a heavy knit cardigan, a silk scarf, or the collar of a button-down shirt to add a textured accent to contemporary outfits.

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth without abrasive polish, keep away from water, perfume, and harsh chemicals, and store flat in a soft lined box to prevent chipping.
