Description :
a stunning, beautifully matched pair of antique Scandinavian solid silver napkin rings crafted by the renowned Norwegian silversmith Th. Marthinsen. Both pieces feature the highly collectible "Marta" pattern (Pattern #356), a timeless example of early 20th-century Norwegian luxury hollowware. The pattern showcases exquisite Rococo-revival C-scroll borders and delicate dual-beading that frames a smooth, central cartouche. The sides flare elegantly into a deeply ribbed scallop shell motif, a signature element of the classic Marta design. Both napkin rings retain a rich, original dark tarnish inside the recessed scrollwork, providing magnificent visual contrast and depth. Crucially, the central monogram shields remain completely blank, smooth, and unengraved, allowing the winning bidder to personalize them with their own family initials. Manufacturer: Th. Marthinsen (Tønsberg, Norway) Pattern: Marta (No. 356) Metal Purity: .830 Solid Silver (Official Norwegian Continental Standard) Hallmarks: Stamped "NM" (Norsk Mønster / Copyrighted Norwegian Pattern), "830 S", and the Th. Marthinsen manufacturer's pictogram. Dimensions: Approximately 2 ¼" inner diameter
