White Nights


Norwegian Art Deco Goldwashed Silver Cufflinks with White Enameling (LEO Design)

When I visited Norway, it was in June—the perfect time to be there.  It was the time of “The Midnight Sun.”  Although the sun would dip below the horizon, the ambient light remained. Upon going to bed, I’d notice the corona of light around my hotel room’s curtains.  If I got up in the night, regardless of the hour, I could still see the light.

The cufflinks above, made by Norwegian jeweler David Anderson in the 1920’s or 1930’s, are finished with silvery-white enameling over radiant (sun-like) guilloché work.  These Art Deco pieces are crafted of 925 (sterling) silver gilded with a gold wash.  Please click upon the photo above to learn more about them.
