Designer

Georg Jensen was a Danish silversmith and designer. Jensen studied at the Royal Danske Kunstakademie in Copenhagen, specializing in sculpture. Before starting his own company, he worked at the Bing & Grøndal porcelain factory. He founded his silver atelier in 1904 and created many works in Art Nouveau style. The company Georg Jensen Sølvsmedie opened a branch on Fifth Avenue in New York City in 1924. The company has often had designers attached to it, such as Sigvard Bernadotte, Arne Jacobsen and Verner Panton. During the 1960s and 1970s, sculpturally designed jewelery and wristwatches were included, designed by, among others, Vivianna Bülow-Hübe. Georg Jensen has always sold high-quality silverware with unique designs. Clean and timeless aesthetics are the company's hallmark.
