GEORG JENSEN




Georg Jensen Brand has been around since the beginning of the 20th century. He is one of the few designers to almost exclusively use sterling silver. He will sometimes work in 14K gold or stone, but for the most part he is known for his silver.

His classic work is usually made of broaches and cufflinks. He often depicts flowers or animals in dynamic poses. His style tends to contain his jewelry within a general shape - almost always a circle. Georg Jensen is also known for its silverware.
Sometimes more so than his jewelry.

The contemporary line is a lot more sleek than the classical original work of the designer. It still carries on his tradition of modesty and class, but with a small pinch of circa 2000 flare.

He has a very elegant touch. His jewelry is modest, and can adorn any outfit without being flashy or pretentious.
