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) and place of manufacture, etc. This Albert Scharning Necklace is amazing and would make a wonderful addition to your signed vintage jewelry collection or would even make a nice gift. 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 an white and shiny. The metal is sterling silver (925) and was made by Albert Scharning in Norway.
The piece is shiny gold and all of the enamel looks great. I did lightly polish the necklace but I was not overly aggressive as I didn't want to damage the enamel it 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.
Thanks so much for looking!
