Small child's sized Vintage / antique traditional Norwegian solje bunad pin. Cherished solje sterling silver brooch.
Adorable tiny petite mini childs size. Traditional heirloom jewelry of Norway. Historically these Bunadsolv pins have been passed down and/or gifted to babies, brides, or anyone else reaching a milestone or deserving of a special gift. This is of a smaller size and was intended for children and called "Child's First Solje Pin" or "My First Solje" meant to wear at any special occasion that they would wear their Bunad. The jingling little disks or "spoons" are historically believed to reflect / deflect or repel evil and/or trolls in Scandinavian folklore. Ready and waiting for your.
