In addition to the jewels of the major jewelry houses, there has been a second history of jewellery since 1945: the history of artists' jewellery, which, like Studio Ceramics or Studio Glass, has been created since the 1960s from materials such as silver and less precious gemstones and focuses in particular on its creation by hand - in contrast to the smooth perfectionism of the large companies. Interesting and unusual structures, daring volumes and expressive reliefs were also in demand - as in this jewelry set from Norway. Handcrafted from silver, it consists of a wide bangle, a ring and a large pendant with matching chain, which can also be worn as a brooch. All pieces feature cabochon-cut amethysts, while the bangle and pendant also feature rose quartz. The shapes of the three pieces of jewelry are individual and sculptural, which is further enhanced by the skilful patination of the silver. The set was acquired by the previous owners themselves at the Valdres Sølvsmie in the village of Heggenes in central Norway around 1980. All three pieces bear the signature of the Valdres Sølvsmie and came to us here in Berlin.
