Who is Georg Jensen?
Georg Jensen was a designer born in the small town of Radvaad, Denmark. He trained as a goldsmith, studied sculpture, trained with master silversmith Mogens Ballin and eventually established his own silver business in Copenhagen in 1904.

For over a century, Jensen’s eponymous firm has produced some of the finest objects in Scandinavian modern design, including silver tableware, serving pieces, home decor, jewelry and more, frequently partnering with leading artisans to expand its offerings and respond to shifting tastes.
