A brief history:  He worked as an apprentice for David Andersen from 1889 - 1904.  He established his own workshop in Oslo Norway in 1906 that would come to be known worldwide as a major supplier of fine enamel and sterling jewelry.  His shop closed in 1971.  Highly collectible and desirable now - especially in great condition
