Juhls Sølvsmie
Earrings Maria
Silver earrings shaped like an M.
The Holy Letter M for Virgo Maria (Queen of Heaven) has been used since the Middle Ages and Catholic times. After the Reformation, the symbolism was forgotten so that imaginative transformations such as this could develop.
Juhl's silversmith's historical jewelery tells of the time when the nomads on Finnmarksvidda carried their valuables with them in the form of jewellery. The jewelery was easy to handle, to the delight of the owner, while at the same time being an important trade and barter item. Since Bergen had a trading monopoly in northern Norway, you can find jewelery with roots there, as well as from trade with countries such as Russia, Finland and Sweden. The Historical series is a collection consisting of copies, delicate processing and variations based on these pieces of jewellery.
About Juhls Sølvsmie
Juhls Sølvsmie has been based in Kautokeino on Finnmarksvidda since 1959 and was the first workshop for silver jewelery in Finnmark. With a sincere urge to create something beautiful and an irrepressible joy in working, the Juhls family has expressed itself in several forms within crafts and art. Making jewelery has been the most important thing. Every piece of jewelery from Juhls Sølvsmie is made by hand in the workshop in Kautokeino.
