Written by Olly Gerrish

A Norwegian silver gilt and black and white enamel necklace designed for the well know firm, David Andersen by Willy Winnaes. It is composed of thirty three articulated sections that have pearlised white enamel in the centre of each one with four black enamel swirls around them. David Andersen opened his shop in Oslo, Norway in 1876. As a designer and retailer specialising in jewellery and silver wares, Andersen’s business model closely mirrors that of Danish silversmith Georg Jensen, who was twenty-three years his junior. Jensen opened his shop in 1904. Andersen died in 1901 and his sons took over company operations and designs. Today, David-Andersen (the company’s name since the early 20th century) is well known for its mid-century enamelled silver jewellery. Willy Winnaess was a key designer for David Andersen. This necklace is fully signed and marked for both Willy Winnaess and David Andersen.
