Welcome to Vintage Scandinavian Silver Jewellery and Decorative Arts
Shipping in March and April - please see news item opposite.
Welcome to my web site. I hope you will enjoy browsing through the pages and maybe find exactly the piece of jewellery for you, whether this comes from Denmark, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Scotland or Germany. I specialise in vintage modernist Scandinavian silver jewellery but also carry some silver-plate, pewter, bronze and ceramics. Whilst the majority of pieces fall into the category of Scandinavian Modern, I have also included Viking and Celtic designs as well as Art Nouveau and Art Deco. The site aims to be informative as well as a sales channel, so do take the time to look up the short biographies on the designers, and the more in-depth articles as they come on-line. It is designed both for the casual browser, who may wish to search for a specific item (product) type, such as necklaces or cufflinks, as well as the seasoned collector, who will probably want to search by designer. I will create separate listings for at least 25 Danish designers/companies as well as 5 from Finland, 10 from Norway and a couple from Sweden and Scotland. Lesser-known designers with just a couple of listings,or those I have been unable to identify, are grouped together by nationality. Advanced search features (tags) include specific gemstones or colours. This site will always be a work-in-progress, and will be updated regularly, as new items are loaded. Sold items will still be visible below the rest of the items by that designer, so if you have missed a piece, I may be able to find it for you on my next trip to Denmark.
Prices are listed in £ sterling as the default, and you can click to see the current price in $US and Euros. Invoices will be issued in UK £ . There is no V.A.T (value added tax) on any item, to any destination.
Other practical information appears under 'Terms and Conditions' when you start an order.
