Georg Jensen
Title
Designed in 1906 by Georg Jensen, The Continental cutlery pattern was the first major cutlery range to emerge from the fledgling silver smithy that was established two years earlier in 1904. In designing Continental, Georg Jensen was inspired by the forms of traditional and centuries-old Nordic tools. The lightly hammered surface enhances the design giving it depth and an unique beauty that is exclusive to silver.
Materials: Sterling Silver
Measurements: H: 6.67 inches.

In 1904 the Danish silversmith Georg Jensen (1866 - 1935) founded his first modest silver smithy in the heart of Copenhagen. Thirty years later, he had made an international name for himself. When he died in 1935, the New York Herald Tribune saluted him as "the greatest silversmith of the last 300 years."
