Let’s look back into Georg Jensen’s humble beginnings, starting within a less urbanized Denmark back in the later 19th Century. Georg Jensen was born in 1866 in a small, rural town north of the capital of Denmark, full of natural beauty at every turn. The image of untouched forests, peaceful lakes, and a deep-rooted connection to nature was at the heart of what inspired Jensen’s designs. He began his profession as a goldsmith and trained as a sculptor. However, it was his designing talent and innovation that catapulted him into work with another precious metal, silver, and by 1904 the Georg Jensen company was born.
It is a commitment to artistry that sets Georg Jensen apart from the rest, as well as a devotion towards creating new and exciting designs. He had grand ideas and rejected the traditional styles of the time, instead embracing the Avant-Garde, Art Nouveau designs which has roots within natural, simplistic creations and a dedication to only the highest-quality work. It was this movement towards the intricate, decorative style of Art Nouveau, which would soon thrive in the early 1900s, that led to the success of Jensen’s work.
To this day, the Georg Jensen company continues to embody the impeccable craftsmanship that began many years ago. They are based in the contemporary, yet historical city of Copenhagen in Denmark and are nestled in the bustling center. The production headquarters houses a small, yet mighty team of thirty excellent silversmiths that are trained to the highest standard. This results in some spectacular products created in a wondrous fashion, using a 100-year-old hand-crafting technique that has been passed down through generations of world-class silversmiths.
Since 1933, only the highest quality 925 Sterling Silver has been used to craft these exceptional pieces which are brought to life from Georg Jensen’s sketches and creations, some of which are historic notes from many years ago. He is a designer that does not settle for second best, and the exceptional talent of Georg Jensen is respected to the highest degree. This is alongside his ability to collaborate with some of the most esteemed designers in the world, which continues to this day as they craft new and exciting designs to push the boundaries of current styles.
This rich history and dedication to excellence is important to consider when looking to add a Georg Jensen piece to your yacht interior. The skill involved in crafting these unique, often individual pieces, is unparalleled and some items from collections can take years to make. Imagine a wine cooler that will take center stage, with natural yet decadent designs that have been painstakingly carved and hammered by hand into the gleaming surface, or a set of champagne goblets you will never want to put down. These exclusive, artistic pieces are a perfect addition to yacht interiors, and will be an excellent point of discussion.
Only the most innovative collections are crafted by the relatively small team, which results in truly excellent craftmanship. Georg Jensen envisaged a new image for silverware, which at the time was stuck within plain and ordinary designs. He worked hard to craft items that would land him as one of the first silversmiths to create a profitable and respected brand.
With items like tableware, jewelry, and vases that are sold all over the world, the Georg Jensen collections offer a range of pieces that throwback to days of refined, delicate craftsmanship, as well as more recent endeavors into bolder, contemporary designs. If you are looking for items to add to your yacht interior and the Georg Jensen collection has caught your attention, it is available through reputable, high-end sellers online. Notably, Georg Jensen’s work was recently auctioned at Sotheby’s, Cannes, where Karl Lagerfeld picked up his piece of Danish design innovation.
