Beautiful 1940s Sterling Silver Norwegian Sølje Brooch Featuring Filigree & Dangling Gilded Discs In Great Condition. Stamped 925 S On Back.

This piece of jewelry is a traditional Norwegian Sølje brooch, a type of folk jewelry historically worn with national costumes known as Bunads.

It features a circular wreath-like base, often crafted from silver (commonly 830 or 925 sterling silver), adorned with hanging spoon-shaped dangles or "discs".

These shiny dangles were traditionally believed to reflect light and ward off evil spirits, protecting the wearer.

While they are now a staple of Norwegian cultural heritage, they were historically significant as wedding brooches or bridal jewelry.

Common designers for this style include Aksel Holmsen and Hans Christian Østrem.
