** Please note: I did not use any professional lighting while taking images of the brooch. In the video and when the brooch is in my white gloved hand or appears lighter in color, I am holding it up in front of a window so that you can see all the details of it. When it appears darker, it is out of the sunlight on a desk 2 feet away.
*** Any dark or light spots you see on the enamel is either shine or shadows. As you zoom in you can see there is a design. The enamel is in excellent condition! Please check out the amazing design details on this brooch!
*** Colors may vary between devices and computer screens. To me, the enamel colors are yellow and green.
Please see video and all images are they are a major part of the description and will show fine details of the piece such as wear, approximate measurements, designer, metal purity (925), place of manufacture, and approximate measurements, etc.

Signed Albert Scharning pieces are getting harder to find in this fine condition as the Modernist look is currently trending and folks are scooping up what they can find. I know you will be thrilled with it!
I recently picked up several other Albert Scharning pieces so be sure to check out my other listings. ALL of the pieces are in excellent vintage condition and show very little, if any wear. They look like they were just hiding in a jewelry box for 50 years or so.
To me this piece is in excellent vintage condition! There is a gold wash over the sterling so the metal appears gold. The enamel is a textured and shiny. The metal is sterling silver (925) and was made by Albert Scharning in Norway. Although the company continued on after his death in 1950 until the early 80s, this piece I am told was more than likely from the 40s-50s as it has the Art Deco / MCM (Mid Century Modern) look to the design.
The piece is shiny gold and all of the enamel looks great.
I did lightly polish the brooch but I was not overly aggressive as I didn’t want to damage the enamel at all because it is in excellent condition. Some folks will wear it as it is and some will do a little polishing of the metal to try to get it super shiny. I would wear it in its current state as I think it is really a great piece.
All in all, I think you will be absolutely thrilled with this piece.
The brooch will be shipped with insurance and delivery confirmation.
Thanks so much for looking!
