Vintage Norwegian Silver Acanthus Bracelet – 1960s
Date / Age: Vintage, circa 1960s
Origin: Norway
Design: Wide linked bracelet with bold acanthus leaf scrollwork, a hallmark of Norwegian decorative arts. The deeply cast, openwork panels create dramatic texture and movement, echoing motifs used in both traditional woodcarving and folk-inspired metalwork.
Material: Solid silver, fineness 830S (standard in Norwegian silverwork)
Maker’s Mark: Stamped SILVER 830S with crown hallmark
Size: 19 cm long x 2.1 cm wide
Weight: 41 g
Clasp: Secure box clasp
Condition: Excellent vintage condition with light patina that enhances the depth of the relief
Notes: A superb example of mid-century Norwegian silversmithing, this piece showcases the enduring influence of the acanthus motif — widely used in Scandinavian design for centuries. Its scrolling, foliate patterns share a kinship with the flowing forms seen in rosemaling, though firmly rooted in the acanthus tradition of ornamental art.
