FAQs

Norwegian enamelled silverware gained worldwide recognition in the late nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries, renowned for fusing high-grade sterling silver with detailed vitreous enamel techniques to depict Nordic motifs and scenery.

These decorative objects typically feature sterling silver bases marked 925S, coated with powdered glass vitreous enamel that is kilned at elevated temperatures to form a smooth pictorial surface.

Authentic pieces usually carry silver purity hallmarks such as 925S alongside stamped maker marks from established Scandinavian silversmiths active during the twentieth century.

A small enamelled tray works well styled on a sideboard top, bookshelf, or desk surface as a accent piece, adding colour and texture to layered vignette displays.

Avoid harsh chemical dip cleaners or abrasive silver polishes that can scratch or dull the enamel glass surface; clean gently using a soft microfibre cloth to preserve the finish.
