Enriching Lifestyle Beyond Jewelry
Unmatched Scandinavian Quality
The brand helped define twentieth-century Scandinavian design style by drawing on Danish cultures and combining them with a progressive design. He dismissed popular taste for romantic and historicist embellishments and extravagance instead of embodying the avant-garde Art Nouveau aesthetic with its simple natural shapes and artisan approach to manufacturing.
He created a sophisticated style distinguished by the high quality of craftsmanship, the sculptural aspect of the design, the innovative and expressive use of flora and fauna embellishments, the hammer marks on the silver surfaces, the oxidation of all the ridges and indents of the silver pieces, including the use of tinted precious gems.
Heritage Since 1904
George Jensen, a Danish silversmith, and designer, rose to international fame for his commercial use of contemporary metal design. He lived near picturesque surroundings with forest and lakes in Raadvad, north of Copenhagen. Nature served as his primary source of inspiration. Natural world symbols meld a unifying theme through his designs: fruits, blossoms, leaves, and organic shapes. His other artistic abilities, coupled with his unending ability to recognize and support design talent, formed the foundation for Georg Jensen's establishment in Copenhagen in 1904.
Jensen was a man of many talents, having trained as a sculptor and apprenticed as a goldsmith. He established a custom of partnering with creative talent from outside the smithy early on. He was confident in his vision and ability, but he desired more than just his own perspective. These collaborations aided in the brand's establishment as a place teeming with new ideas; his studio became home to a company of exceptionally talented silversmiths and metalworkers, jewelers, designers, and artists.
