The preeminent luxury silver brand in the world, Georg Jensen is the
essence of Danish design and craftsmanship. Founded in 1904, Georg
Jensen has a deep heritage in high-end silver-smithing that represents
timeless design and enduring style. The eponymous founder was trained as
an artist at the turn of the twentieth century, and his jewellery
designs in the art nouveau style won immediate acclaim. Jensen was the
first design company to reach out to outside designers to ensure the
best designed products in their ever-expanding lines, which include
sterling silver cutlery, jewellery, watches, and housewares. Arne
Jacobsen, Henning Koppel, and Nanna Ditzel are just a few of the names
synonymous with Danish Modern who designed their best products for
Jensen. That tradition continues today with celebrated designers such as
Jean Nouvel and Ilse Crawford. With beautiful historic photographs and
drawings from Jensen's extensive archive, which display the incredible
craftsmanship and technical innovations of the highly skilled
silversmiths, Georg Jensen is a sumptuous visual celebration of Danish
design.
Offering a lavish and in-depth look at some of the most stunning silver
creations in history, this volume is for anyone interested in design and
craftsmanship.
