Item Description
Kongsberg has produced superb, world-class, silver wire specimens and this is a very fine thumbnail example. The thick, well-burnished and striated, curved and curled, silver wire looks like a coiled cobra ready to strike or perhaps the ultimate silver "question mark" in another orientation. The tiny silver wire "hairs" are a striking accent. This is an oustanding and aesthetic quality silver from this historic locale. Valued at $400.
