[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4365487, member: 2844"]Sølje is Norwegian for brooch. A better search term is 'bunad', which is the Norwegian word for traditional costumes in general. Since your bangle isn't signed, it is probably not by Marius Hammer, but very likely the same period. Norwegian jewellery is of excellent quality, and their enamels are famous. Many Norwegian enamelists were asked to work in Russia, for Fabergé for instance.[/QUOTE]
