This is a Unique Vintage Aksel Holmsen Norway Modernist White Enamel and Sterling Necklace. The necklace has pretty white enamel that has a kind of iridescence to it containing a relatively faint textured pattern. The white enamel is inlaid in a modernist sterling design. On the back of the white enamel piece t are grooves within the sterling that reflect the silver lines on the front going through the enamel (I hope that makes sense). The pendant centerpiece is stamped on the back "Norway Sterling - Aksel Holmsen mark - 925S" (please see photo). The pendant centerpiece hangs from either side of a nice chain. The necklace looks better in person (tried my best to capture the uniqueness). The necklace is in pretty good vintage condition. On the silver parts t are some greyish black tarnish, some yellowy tarnish (mostly on the back of centerpiece), some minor surface nicks, and some minor surface scratches. Overall very nice and striking. I think the flaws give the necklace character and a nice vintage look (could use cleaning-polishing - leave it up to you). The enameling is very nice with no flaws that I see. The necklace measures when opened about 16" long when opened. The pendant centerpiece measures about 2" high by 1 3/4" at widest point (please see coin for scale in the photo of the entire necklace). Some of the lights and reflections
