AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Danish modernist silver brooch – Bernhard Hertz (BH) – Sterling silver 925S – circa 1950–1970 – 5.4 grams
An elegant and refined Scandinavian design brooch in sterling silver, designed and manufactured by the renowned Danish jewelry house Bernhard Hertz. The graceful, openwork design evokes a stylized leaf or fern and beautifully showcases the organic language of form that is so characteristic of Danish modernist jewelry design from the mid-20th century.
The brooch is subtle, light to wear, and yet clearly present thanks to the flowing lines and the soft silver sheen.

I ensure that the objects are very well packaged so they can arrive safely. I hope that, through my circular mission of sustainability, these beautiful objects can be given a second life, serving as a good example for many others.
