Description: Niels Erik From Denmark Sterling 3-D Viking Shields Brooch & Ring Circa 1960s Ring Size: 7.75 US / 56.5 EU / P 1/4 UK Brooch Measurements: 1.75"L x 1.6"W (4.45cm x 4.06cm) Markings: NE From Denmark 925S Sterling Weight: 21.3g Total Fantastic sterling silver brooch and ring set by the iconic Danish designer Niels Eric From. Both pieces are styled after Scandinavian Viking Shields in a 3-D form. Black enamel in the recesses giving them a terrific depth and dramatic look and glossy silver raised balls. They have been professionally polished and look outstanding. Please excuse the black lines or reflections, as they are extremely shiny and hard to photograph. Included with purchase is a converter so the brooch can be worn as a pendant if preferred. Mannequin is a life-size torso representation Niels Erik From was born in Denmark in 1908 and trained as a silversmith. He opened a shop in 1931 from which he also sold some of his designs, but the N.E. From smithy is first registered in Nakskov in 1944. His son-in-law Hilmer Jensen joined the management team in 1960, and took over the firm in 1986 after Niels Erik's death. The company was wound up a few years later. There are two distinct styles in the From production. The sinewy foliage and floral pieces were designed by Niels Erik From and characterise the early years of production, whereas the bold modernist pieces were introduced by another designer in his firm in the 1960s.
