AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Norwegian Sølje brooch in silver, made by Sylvsmidja, a well-known producer of traditional Norwegian jewelry since 1940. The company was founded by Leif Johannessen and his wife Betzy in Voss and is known for their interpretations of classic bunad jewelry.

This brooch is a typical example of a sølje, worn with the Norwegian bunad (traditional costume). Characteristic are the small hanging bowls that move freely and reflect light with every movement.

This variant has a richer construction with multiple hanging elements, including filigree twisted connections and a long, teardrop-shaped pendant at the bottom. The combination of spherical bowls and finer wirework adds more movement and detail to the whole.

On the back, a C-clasp.

Certified with the horn mark of Sylvsmidja and 830S.

Condition: in good vintage condition, with normal signs of wear appropriate to age.

Details:
Brooch dimensions: 3.3 cm wide
Total length including pendant: approx. 6.2 cm
Clasp: C-clasp
Mark: Sylvsmidja horn mark 830S

- All jewelry is carefully packaged in a jewelry box and shipped with Track & Trace.
