6 Norwegian Modernist Enamel Sterling Silver Candlesticks N.M.Thune Viking Norse

About the Item

This is an extraordinary rare museum quality set of six Mid-Century Modern Enamel Candlesticks made by the Norwegian maker N.M. Thune of Norway. Along with the six candlesticks is a matching vase. Each is adorned with magnificent enamel images with depictions of medieval Norse Mythology and Viking imagery. The colors and design are mid-century magnificence. The very rare group of candlesticks is made by the esteemed maker N.M Thune who are renowned for their beautiful silver work adorned with enamel. The candlesticks are extremely rare. The candlesticks are hallmarked Thune 925S. We also have a set of four large candlesticks by Thune with similar Viking imagery available from the same estate - I have included a photo of these as well. Pieces by N.M Thune are rare and highly desirable as objects of Mid-Century Modern design. Their use of silver and enamel is of the highest quality and their designs based on antique Scandinavian motifs are particularly wonderful. The bold use of the enamel colors is particularly striking. The candlesticks are 3 1/4 inches (8.3 cm) tall. The vase is 3 inches tall. There is some loss to the enamel on the pieces. Please see the photos for the condition of the pieces.
