Description from the seller

Oluf Christian Kundby (OCK) – Danish Marguerite Brooch – 925S sterling silver, vermeil gold plated & white enamel – Ø 40 mm

Beautiful vintage Danish Marguerite or Daisy brooch, crafted by the Copenhagen silversmith Oluf Christian Kundby (OCK).

The brooch is executed in 925S sterling silver and is vermeil-gilded on both the front and back. The individual petals are coated with clear white enamel, which beautifully contrasts with the gold-colored surface and the characteristic finely detailed heart of the marguerite.

The marguerite motif is among the most recognizable motifs within Danish jewelry tradition. Although Anton Michelsen became best known for his Marguerite jewelry, high-quality variants were also produced by other Danish silversmiths. This piece is clearly marked “OCK 925S” and can be attributed to Oluf Christian Kundby from Copenhagen.

Kundby was active as a silversmith in Copenhagen in the 1930s. His OCK maker’s mark is documented for several periods. For this specific marguerite model, no exact production date has been established; based on execution and style, the brooch is offered as Danish vintage design from the second half of the 20th century.

The backside is also fully vermeil-gilded and equipped with a traditional brooch clasp. Due to its generous size of 40 mm, the brooch wears with a beautiful, striking appearance without being overly large.

Seller's Story

I have a passion for vintage design, and my objects mainly come from Scandinavia. I seek out unique gems that are then offered to new owners through this platform. 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.
