A small and beautiful antique hand chased silver Skønvirke brooch with a round moonstone.

Made in Denmark in the early 1900s and stamped 830 S. Box shown is for display only.

This antique brooch is typical of the naturalistic styles that were popular at the turn of the 20th Century. Danish artists were inspired by the British Arts and Crafts movement and the work of Charles Robert Ashbee who chased and moulded thin silver sheets to create plant and organic styled jewellery. The silver also reflects a popular way of oxidising the metal with a sulphuric solution to create darker areas in the indents to produce a sharp contrast and highlight the organic designs.

A petite silver brooch that closes with a c catch to the reverse.

Width: 1.8 cm
Length: 2.8 cm

Condition: very good but please view all images as they are part of the description.
