The Danish silversmith, sculptor and potter studied at the Copenhagen Royal Academy and had several ventures before opening his own workshop in Copenhagen in 1904. He began collaborating with painter and designer Johan Rhode in 1907 and opened a shop in Berlin (1908) and won International acclaim at the 1910 Brussels Exhibition. More shops were opened in Paris (1919) London (1920) Stockholm (1930). A New York shop was opened by Jost Lunning in 1920 and these all sold Jensen's high quality mass-produced silver items and jewellery. The New York Herald Tribune hailed him as the "greatest silversmith of the last 300 years," Many of the early designs are still in production today. For a full history go to www.georgjensen.com !
