[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 10305556, member: 111"]See you're a new member, so welcome. You've been asked more than once to show the back of the enamel brooch - it is important to give as much information as possible to aid in correct IDs. As already mentioned, there is no evidence shown that the one linked is a Holth piece, they typically clearly place their mark by the quality mark, but it is almost certainly Norwegian and could easily be mid 20th century. Tube hinges and C-clasps are very common on Scandinavian and other countries well past the mid 20th century, I was given a Norwegian brooch with those findings, purchased new in the late '70s, and have Ivar T. Holth (firm founded in 1943) brooches with the same. Would have to disagree on "always"... Agreed. Agreed. ~Cheryl[/QUOTE]
