Georg Jensen
Biography:
Danish sculptor Georg Jensen founded his silversmith business in Copenhagen in 1904. His unique designs embraced elegant lines, organic motifs and simplicity of form that made him an instant commercial success. Not tied to one artistic arena, Georg Jensen created masterful works in jewelry, cutlery and hollowware. He is by rights one of the most influential silversmiths of the 20th century. His brightly polished creations, both pure and timeless, encompassed Art Nouveau and Avant-Garde styles. Georg Jensen died in 1935. His extraordinary vision continues today with his company producing fine jewelry, watches, gift items and cutlery in gold, sterling silver, stainless steel and precious gems.
