Vintage NORWAY Sterling& Enamel Viking Ship Pin~HOLT~Ivar Holth Sail Boat Brooch

With its sail full and taut and its Flag fluttering, this vintage sterling and enamel Norwegian sailboat has an animated look, as if it were sailing full speed ahead. The guilloché enamel is highly detailed with underlying patterns of lines in the hull and tiny squares in the Flag and sail, that add interest and texture. The beading in the metal along the top of the hull contrasts nicely with the smooth enamel. This version ofthe traditionalViking ship is from the 1960s, the mid century heyday of Scandinavian modernist design.

In sterling silver with a gold wash (vermeil),it measures about 1-3/8\" tall by 1-3/16\" wide.

Apart from a slight manufacturing imperfection where the enamel is a little uneven meeting the metal, it is in Excellent condition. The gilding has mellowed with time to a warm golden glow, giving it a lovely vintage patina; cleaning and polishing are left to the buyer\'s discretion.

Although a little hard to see because the metal is textured, (but guaranteed to be there) it is signed on the back of the sail \"925 S\" along with \"Sterling Norway\" and an \"H\" in a circle for Ivar T. Holt (or Holth).

This is an expertly made piece of Nautical jewelry with a lively design and a wonderful color combination. Perfect to wear any time you are near water, you don\'t have to be a sailor to love this pin. It would make a terrific gift, although I doubt you will want to part with it, and it will sail out of here in a gift box, just in case.A beautiful vintage signed Scandinavian sterling and enamel boat pin to add to your collection!
