Meet Georg Jensen in New York

What makes a creation from Georg Jensen in New York such a special collectible? Georg Jensen was a sculptor who struggled for the first half of his career trying to find a market for his art. When he met Mogens Ballin his life changed, since that talent turned him onto silversmithing as a career. Eventually Georg Jensen found great success by combining his artistic imagination with his mastery of silversmithing. He created his own brand of modern silverware. Now, all of his creations have been preserved in the Georg Jensen New York brand. This company makes all jewelry and silverware pieces in Denmark, though you can find Georg Jensen products in New York and online. Georg Jensen may have died in 1935 but he left behind a legacy and a great line of work that has revolutionized what we know as silverware and hollowware.
