Georg Jensen Jewellery: A Complete Guide

As a brand that prides itself on quality craftsmanship and timeless aesthetic, Georg Jensen is renowned for its unique jewellery, watches and homeware. With a wealth of knowledge spanning more than a century, Georg Jensen pieces are devised around values of integrity, authenticity and sleek Danish design.

Proudly holding a royal warrant from the Danish Royal Court, the iconic brand puts Danish values at the forefront of each piece; designed to evoke the simplicity of life through the notion of clean water, fresh air and unique light found in the Nordic region.

Our expert jewellers here at David M Robinson have put together a complete guide, which explores the rich history of the brand, whist highlighting the multitude of collections ranging from understated sophistication to bold individuality.

Georg Jensen: A brief history

Founded by the namesake silversmith, Georg Jensen, the brand was established in Copenhagen in 1904 with a mission to enrich everyday life through the inspiration of nature. Georg grew up close to the forest and lakes north of the city, which sparked his admiration of nature, which would go on to become his muse. As a core source of inspiration, symbols of the natural world weave a common thread throughout each of his pieces, both then and now.

As someone who once said: “Do not follow fashion, but be guided by the present.”, Georg’s ethos was to spread joy and elegance through a unique combination of craftsmanship, functionality and artistic aesthetics. His philosophy was to create innovative designs that are both beautiful and practical, in order to satisfy one’s needs and desires.

Distinguishing features of the brand focus around delightful impressions of nature, alongside impeccable craftsmanship and Scandinavian design sensibility. Here, we explore current collections to give you a sense of their style and symbolism.

Moonlight Grapes

A contemporary reworking of Georg Jensen designs of yesteryear, Moonlight Grapes offers a nod to the Art Nouveau motif from the archive. Reworked and reinterpreted, this collection combines traditional heritage and unique modernity with striking results.

Mercy

Serving as an emotional reminder to always be compassionate, the Mercy collection showcases fine pieces that gently wrap around your fingers, neck and ears. Exuding style and simplicity, the caressing design suggests the fluid nature of time and the unpredictability of fate.

Torun

The epitome of Scandinavian design, the Torun collection is the perfect example of legendary designer Vivianna Torun Bülow-Hübe’s unconventional yet beautiful work. With the notion of two halves being stronger together, each piece offers a true symbolism of love and unity.

Daisy

Capturing the carefree nature of the humble flower, Daisy speaks to the spirited, young-at-heart seeking fresh contemporary pieces with a feminine finish.

Offspring

As the name suggests, Offspring symbolises the true power of relationships between mother and daughter, siblings and life-long friends. The intricate interlocking suggests unbreakable bonds and solidarity.

Fusion

Exploring endless combinations of precious metals, Fusion allows you to tell your own stories with jewellery. The mix of elements help create a narrative about love past, present and future.

Reflect

Presenting a timeless chain design with a striking avant-garde finish, the Reflect collection by Jacqueline Rabun for Georg Jensen offers true modern-day classic pieces.

Infinity

Inspired by the mathematical symbol for Infinity, Regitze Overgaard’s sculptural forms express eternal love in a powerful, wearable artform.

Curve

Celebrating the beauty of the perfect arc, Regitze Overgaard’s bold and sculptural Curve collection exudes stunning simplicity. Minimalist and organic, this collection is a fine example of understated, Scandinavian sophistication.

Halo

Delightfully delivering uncomplicated luxury, the Halo collection from Sophie Bille Brahe provides a sense of natural beauty and effortless elegance. The delicate diamond-encrusted halos are inspired by the transcendental Nordic night sky, together with the glow that surrounds the moon.
