Silver & Yellow Enamel Butterfly by David Andersen

671R
360 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A beautiful silver gilt butterfly brooch by David Andersen that was made circa 1950. It has been enamelled in translucent yellow that shows the engraved silver beneath. The body of the butterfly is black enamel. Andersen opened his shop in Oslo, Norway in 1876 specialising in jewellery and silver wares. He died in 1901 and his sons took over company operations and designs. Today, David-Andersen (the company’s name since the early 20th century) is well known for its mid century enamelled silver jewellery. This brooch is a good example of the firm’s work and is a lovely little jewel to wear.
