Danish Silver Bracelet 830S

By richsoren, 21 June, 2008
Description

I have this beautiful and kind of mysterious small bracelet or large napkin holder that is probably early Danish or Scandinavian made. It is solid Silver 830S and about 1 ¾” in diameter. The design on one side appears to be a knight in a mail garment and a lady holding some sort of staff. They seem to be emerging from a castle keep on a ladder, eloping or escaping. The other side is a village with spired and mosque like buildings, sort of Byzantine looking. Floating above this is a man sitting up in a trunk or coffin like box.  There is a hallmark and 830S inside the band. I would appreciate any information on this item Thank you.

Re: Danish Silver Bracelet 830S

I have since found that the mark is probably H over S or S over H and the guy in the trunk is from Hans Christian Anderson’s ‘The Flying Trunk’ and the city would be Turkish. The lady and man in the tower may be from the same story.
