Daisy jewellery gained widespread popularity in Denmark during the 1940s, notably associated with the wedding of Margrethe II of Denmark, and was produced by prominent silversmiths like Anton Michelsen.

These pieces are traditionally crafted from sterling silver, often with a gold vermeil wash, and decorated with vitreous or cold enamel applied to form the petals.

Authentic pieces generally feature makers marks or hallmarks stamped on the reverse, indicating the silversmith, silver purity such as sterling, and country of origin.

They can be worn pinned to lapels, coat collars, or used to fasten scarves, adding a touch of classic mid-century design to contemporary outfits.

Silver should be gently polished with a microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can damage enamel work or gold plating, and stored in a dry, tarnish-resistant pouch.
