Markings: Norway Sterling 925S Maker's Mark
Weight: 16.2g
Gorgeous bright turquoise blue and white daily flower brooch. Brooch is in excellent condition, enamel is clean and bright with no damage of any kind. There is fading to the gilding on the back, it looks more silver now than yellow gold, not uncommon for a 75+ year old brooch. Please excuse the lines or reflections, as it's extremely shiny and hard to photograph. Included with purchase is a converter so it can be worn as a pendant if preferred.
Mannequin is a life-size torso representation
Aksel Holmsen was a Norwegian jewellery maker. He trained in filigree work with David Andersen during 1889-92 . He went on to open his own silversmith workshop in 1904 in Oslo which became known for its modernist design esthetic. His son Ivar began working at the company in 1942, eventually taking over the firm in 1950. They produced traditional filigree work, as well as enamel floral brooches in the Fifties and plain silver modernist abstract jewellery in the sixties. The firm used a crossed bench tool stamp before changing to the "A.H.S" stamp for Aksel Holmsen Salg. The company eventually closed in 1971.
