Exquisite, Georg Jensen
earrings designed by Torun Bülow-Hϋbe
with great
movement when worn;
about 1-5/8" long; marked: "925 S, DENMARK, GEORGE JENSEN, 370, TORUN;" fine condition. Torun Bülow-Hϋbe's designs for Georg Jensen are some of the most sought-after of the modernist pieces created by that company. The following is from http://www.jensensilver.com/news-info/designers.html#torun : "It is a search for the source,
the simple and natural, that impels Torun's creative work. Inspired by
the art of primitive cultures, African, Oceanic, Egyptian, she creates
her forms not for the sake of beauty alone; but carefully considers both
the form and function of each piece of jewellery she makes. A practical
detail such as the fastening is not concealed
but on the contrary accentuated. She subscribes to the philosophy that
what is functional is also beautiful".
