Norwegian Silver and Royal Blue Enamel Vintage Brooch by Finn Jensen
This Norwegian sterling silver brooch is beautifully decorated in vibrant cobalt blue enamel. The colour is a signature of Finn Jensen, the Norwegian silversmith who designed the brooch. The enamel is set on gilt sterling silver.
The back of the brooch shows a bit of tarnish to the gilt finish. The enamel is in great condition without chips.
The brooch is stamped on the back with 'Norway Sterling 925' and the Finn Jensen triangle mark.
Finn Jensen
Finn Jensen was a Norwegian gold and silversmith who was active from the 1940s. After becoming a licenced goldsmith Jensen formed a partnership and opened a company which was named Jensen and Aamodt. In 1953 Jensen became the sole proprietor and the company was renamed Finn Jensen. They were well-known for producing Solje, traditional shiny silver wedding brooches, as well as abstract and nature-inspired guilloche enamel jewellery.
Jensen passed away in 1976 and his company continued to produce jewellery.
Finn Jensen jewellery is marked with an FJ made to look like a small triangle.
How do you rate the condition of a piece?
Excellent - No visible flaws to note but items may exhibit some signs of age related wear
Very Good - Some visible flaws which aren't considered to impair the wearability of the piece
Good - Some more notable flaws but the piece is still in collectible condition
All items are vintage and have lived a previous life, therefore signs of age related wear are to be expected. I do my best to bring attention to any faults in the description and by using the condition scale.
