About us
Craftsmanship and history since 1901
Goldsmith Sando is originally from Hallingdal, and since 1901 the profession has travelled four generations down. Kolbjørn and Jørgen Sando are both Master Goldsmiths and have always been devoted to keeping a good professional profile, being able to offer both engraving and repairing to their clients in their own workshop. Our specialty is silver and brooches for Bunads, with the Tinnbunad, Skjælestakk, Beltestakk, Øst-Telemark and Vest-Telemark Bunad in particular.
We are passionate about Norwegian craftsmanship and bunad silver, and we believe in the value of preserving traditions while adapting to modern times. Over the years, we’ve forged ties with both large and small manufacturers across Norway to ensure we can offer our customers jewelry of the highest quality – jewelry that lasts for generations.
Our philosophy
At Gullsmed Sando, our philosophy is simple: We want to create jewelry that not only looks beautiful, but also means something to those who wear it. Whether it’s a traditional bunad brooch, a personally engraved piece of jewelry, or a one-of-a-kind design, we take pride in every product that leaves our workshop.
We believe in meeting every customer with openness and honesty, and we always strive to understand your unique needs. With us, you get more than just a piece of jewelry – you get a piece of our history and our commitment to quality.
Explore our jewelry
We invite you to explore our online store, where you will find a wide range of jewelry, from traditional bunad silver to modern designs. Each piece of jewelry is made with precision and care, so you can be sure you’re investing in something special.

“For us, it’s not just about making jewelry – it’s about passing on a heritage, a history, and a passion for craftsmanship that has been in our family for over 120 years. Every piece of jewelry we make carries a part of that legacy.”
– Jørgen Sando, general manager and master jeweler.
