A luminous mid‑century Scandinavian treasure, this set of six Gustav Hellstrøm sterling silver guilloché enamel demitasse spoons showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of one of Norway’s most celebrated enamel workshops. Produced in Stavanger during the 1950s, each spoon features translucent enamel layered over engine‑turned guilloché engraving, creating the shimmering, light‑catching radiance that defines Norwegian enamel artistry.
The spoons are finished in their original vermeil (gold wash) over sterling silver and display a vibrant palette of classic mid‑century colors—lemon yellow, ice blue, amethyst purple, burnt orange / red, cobalt blue, and mint green. These hues are iconic to Scandinavian enamel design of the era and highly prized among collectors for their clarity and brilliance.
Measuring approximately 4 inches, the spoons are perfectly scaled for espresso service, dessert presentation, or display. They are housed in their original fitted presentation box, which shows age‑appropriate exterior wear but has protected the spoons beautifully for decades.
A refined addition to any collection of Norwegian silver, guilloché enamel, or mid‑century decorative arts, and an elegant gift for lovers of Scandinavian design.
