Silver Brooch by Georg Jensen, Denmark

An abstract floral brooch with an oval centre which emanates conceptual petals and stamen. The reverse is marked  ‘GEORG JENSEN’, ‘DENMARK’, ‘STERLING’ for sterling silver, ‘30’, together with London import marks for sterling silver and 1993. It is secured with a hinged pin and C-scroll safety clasp.

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.
