Willy Winnaess was a prominent Danish-Norwegian goldsmith and designer who worked for David-Andersen in the 1950s and 60s. His contributions elevated mid-century enamel jewelry art to a higher level with nature-inspired themes and technical finesse.

Winnaess specialized in brooches, bracelets, pendants and earrings, often with motifs inspired by leaves, flowers, insects and animals which draws threads back to the Art Nouveau era.

A characteristic style was the use of guilloché and basse-taille enamel, with shiny colours such as white, yellow, red and blue overlaid on gilt or sterling silver.
