Re: David Andersen 830S pin, help

Thank you NorskyGal and swedenorway! All information is appreciated. Still hope to get the date narrowed down for sure, one day. I think the "after 1941" makes sense since I know my great aunt traveled to Europe in the early 50's. Any further information on the "David-Andersen" m...

Re: David Andersen 830S pin, help

Kaye...how interesting, thanks for sharing. I'm in south central Kansas, almost in Oklahoma, in the middle of nowhere. Wichita is 75 miles from me. I think I was in ND when I was a kid but haven't been back since. I know some custom cutters who live in Walhalla which is straight north of you (we far...

Re: David Andersen 830S pin, help

Yes, I will let you know if I find out anything new. I've taken my brooch to antique stores etc. but can't find anyone who knows enough about that kind of jewelry. How long ago did you get your piece? Something else...the bird on our brooch appears to be a partridge to me. I had been wondering if th...

Re: Need Help w/Maker's Mark on Poss. Scandinavian Brooch

This is Carol Lynn...I noticed this post about your other brooch. Your brooch has seven "dashes" on the back. In my research on marks, I found information that talks about "seven dots" on the mark. Here is what it said: "The crown-shaped mark is for Theodor Olsens Eftf, of B...

Re: David Andersen 830S pin, help

Thank you Kaye -- for the information about the "C'" clasp. Does your piece have a hand engraved number on the back? I only saw the number on mine when I took a photo and loaded it on my computer. I have read that another number on a piece COULD be a product number or a limited edition num...

Re: David Andersen 830S pin, help

NorskyGal--- Thank you so much! I'm surprised it's 1948 as I thought the "C" clasps were used much earlier than that. Also, I thought the 830 silver was used earlier. This brooch belonged to my great Aunt, who traveled in Europe in the 1950's, and I had no information on it. It's very unus...

Tosten, thank you so much for the reply. Do you have an idea of the date? Would it be 1843-1901 time frame? Do you know of anyone who might have more information?
Thank you so much.

David Andersen 830S pin, help

Any information on this pin would be appreciated. It is marked "David-Andersen" and 830S (but no scales). Also looks like the number "16" is hand etched on the back. Has a "C" clasp. Measures 2" x 2" approximately. It doesn't exactly match the David Andersen m...
