A pendant formed of subtle ornate leaves encasing an oval cabochon garnet. The reverse is marked ‘GEORG JENSEN’, ‘DENMARK’, ‘1994’ and ‘925 S’ for sterling silver, together with London import marks for sterling silver and 1994. The pendant comes from the Jensen Heritage Collection which was inspired by the company’s designs from the Art Nouveau period.
The chain is a modern barleycorn chain.
Georg Jensen (1866-1935) trained as a goldsmith and sculptor before establishing his own workshop in Copenhagen in 1904. He was influenced by nature and form, and his business (named after him) created highly original jewellery and silverware, which in turn pioneered 20th century Scandinavian design. The company continues to exist and is still internationally recognised today.
