A lightly hammered sterling silver bangle bracelet by Tone Vigeland. Measures 2 1/2" across the inside and 2 3/8" high. Also measures about 7" around the inner circumference. Slightly oval so easier to slip on. Better for a small to medium wrist.
Marked with the ND and the Plus sign for Norway Designs Plus, conjoined TV for Tone Vigeland, Sterling, 925S and Norway.
Nice weight and quality. Fine condition with a warm patina. Great example.
Fun to wear vintage sterling star burst Ed Wiener design clip back earrings. They measure 1 1/2" by 1 1/8" and weigh 7 grams total. Fine original condition. Signed only Sterling and T2, but a design that Modernist Ed Wiener used in several of his mid-century pieces. Great to wear anytime but especially festive during the holiday season.
From his third design period, this design is shown on the Spratling Silver website. Described as "round urns with three feet of silver and obsidian". These are collector quality, and this design is very seldom seen. They are very comfortable to wear, have beautiful movement, and look fabulous on.
Measures 1 3/8" tall with a width of 11/16".
Weight is 16.6 grams.

I've taken photos of both...
