This vintage sterling silver brooch is created in the Scandinavian Modern style by Norwegian designer O.H Hjortdahl, dating to 1950. The piece displays a round form with a scalloped edge carrying gold accents and a black enamel border. At the centre, a hand-painted pink rose motif rests upon a guilloche pale blue enamel face. The reverse incorporates a subtle gilding and a c clasp fastening, alongside stamped marks for O.H Hjortdahl and 925S Sterling Norway. The item measures 4.2 cm in width and 4.2 cm in length, weighing 15.9 grams. In a contemporary home, collectors wear this brooch pinned to various clothing items to bring a splash of colour and style to an outfit. The accessory functions as a wearable piece of mid-century jewellery rather than a static display item, adding a distinct decorative detail to everyday or formal attire.

FAQs

Guilloche enamel refers to a decorative technique where a precise geometric pattern is mechanically engraved into metal, typically sterling silver, and covered with translucent vitreous enamel. Scandinavian silversmiths in the twentieth century refined this technique, creating distinctive floral and abstract designs.

These brooches are primarily constructed from sterling silver, often finished with a gold wash known as vermeil. The decorative surface consists of vitreous enamel, formed by fusing powdered glass to the engraved silver base at high temperatures.

Authentic pieces bear Makers marks alongside silver purity stamps such as 925S or STERLING NORWAY. The reverse usually reveals the silver structure and pin mechanism, while the front displays crisp engine-turned detailing beneath the enamel.

Enamel brooches can be worn on coat lapels, silk scarves, or velvet ribbons as personal adornment. Collectors also display them mounted inside shadow-box frames lined with linen or velvet to preserve them as decorative wall art.

Clean gently using a dry, lint-free microfibre cloth to remove fingerprints and dust. Avoid exposure to water, ultrasonic cleaners, and harsh chemical polishes, as moisture and chemicals can crack the enamel or damage the silver gilding.
