Description

The listing, ✿✿♡☮MID-EVIL-VIKINGS-SHIP-SWORD BROOCHES SPAIN ESTATE FIND LOT☮♡✿✿ has ended.

This unique estate find will start at 1 credit and 21 day auction to be fair. This is the first of this kind that I have seen like this. First there is a a removable sword brooch, not sure if it is a letter opener or what the chain looks like it is missing a "o" hoop unless it is made like that to remove the sword. It has great detail and looks like some sort of dragon or creature in the center. the Ship looks like it matches it and also has great detail both have the same kind of pattern and is marked Spain. I got them at the same estate sale.

The third piece I got at a different sale but thought it matches so well thought I would add it. This is also a ship but a smaller one that is a pendant, still has tags that say Made in Norway on one side and Opro Design on the side of the tag. Opro is a Norwegian designer that is known for his hand made silver pieces. Inside the sail it says 925 S with an upside down triangle. My camera could not get a pic good of his designers mark, I tried see pics and see if you can enlarge.
This auction is for all.

Questions & Comments

Yes you are right, google had it three different ways of spelling. I looked it up before I listed it, I use a lot of ~ or - flowers or hearts to try and get peoples attention and a lot of people look for mid rings as well as evil eye... so I try to catch the attention mostly. If someone comments I just say sorry and go on. Thanks though and thank you for commenting. I will be having a month of auctions dedicated from when I lived in Indiana and got to go to a few haunted auctions which were fun and some from England... so there will be lots of stones medieval, stuff, cards, and vintage pieces as well as some that I won from the haunted house auction they have ones a year. I will give all the info on it so people can google more info on it. :) It will be fun and many collectible pieces. Thanks runs with 1 wolf... I run with a wolf too :D

Namaste and you are welcome. I love it when more info can be found on a piece. Opro designs are sought after, people from all over the world look for the artist pieces. You just might have something valuable and dont know it. Plus all his stuff is silver. But being in the family you will want to hold on to that one. Thanks so much for sharing and your comments. :) Namaskar

And there are 3 it says opro that deals with fashion and jewelry, opro, opro as, and opro jesmykker since 1776, this is the link of the last which has the enamel pieces
http://www.emaljesmykker.no/verkstedsbilder/
this is fun!

Mar 25th, 2017 at 5:51:32 PM PDT by

I found the opro viking producer that went back to 1945 when it was but trademarked in 1976 here are more viking pieces and a link.
http://www.forvikingsonly.ca/index.cfm/page/30/mid/36/JEWELLERY.html
that says :Opro features a beautiful line of unique hand painted enameled jewelry depicting typical Norwegian scenes, from Viking ships and the midnight sun to polar bears, reindeer and other Nordic animals. Each piece is individually hand-painted.

Opro Producter was founded in Oslo in 1945 and specializes in designing and producing enameled jewelery on sterling silver or with a rich finish of 24-carat gold.

The art of enameling dates back to ancient China, Greece and Rome. Enamel first gained a serious place in the art of Norwegian goldsmiths in the 1880s, and Norway was considered to be the top enamelware producer at the turn of the century. Today, Opro Produkter is one of the few companies worldwide working to keep this rare craft alive.
copied from site hope that helps some

Ok thxz with ur info I looked it up,so if anyone wants 2 look xactly bout the company it's:Opro Norske Emaljesmykker since 1976....I found a ship the same as this one & mine,but it's Enamel....If u accidentally put only OPRO then u'll find mouth guards...Lol.. Namaste

Mar 25th, 2017 at 5:27:18 PM PDT by

ok and thanks for your info all info is appreciated. I also ordered a silver testing kit, because all I have is an electronic gold tester and acid for gold, but no silver and many have gotten pieces that says they were silver but not marked. That is the only draw back to estate sales, you dont know on it unless you can test it since you dont know where it came from or the history. I am hoping to get it before this auction ends and then if the other two are silver I will show pics of the test and grams, since these are good sized pieces of the sword and ship. If not I have listed some other auctions yesterday that I bet are silver but not marked since they were hand made. Either way I will be happy to start testing for silver as well, because many pieces were silver and others would have wanted it more if they knew it was. Thanks and I am going to check out your info too :)

If I'm not mistakin, when my grandmother gave it 2 me,it was already passed down from her great grandma,so yea "old" I'm very happy that I got it...That other ship from Spain has beautiful details, nicely done workmanship..

Mar 25th, 2017 at 5:10:45 PM PDT by

Yes awesome details. They all looked similar so I thought I would put them together, the two from spain came from the same auction place, but the other one a different place. Yet they all go together well :)

Mar 25th, 2017 at 5:21:59 PM PDT by

I found his designs started as silver and in the 70;s he introduced enamel with the silver. The cuff-links were not all silver they had enamel with the design.

Mar 25th, 2017 at 5:44:34 PM PDT by

And I also found a pair of his cuff links that is going for 200.00 I wish I knew more about the other two pieces they just say Spain on them.
