Silversmith, George Jensen (1866-1935) founded his company in 1904 in Copenhagen.  Because of his astute business skills and excellent sense of design, he experienced success early-on and, by 1910, the year that he won a gold medal at the Brussels Expo, he was already exporting his jewelry to London and Paris.

His early work was in the skonvirke style, often in high relief with moonstones, lapis, amber, coral, garnet, etc.  The company continued after Jensen's death and produced jewelry in many different styles by some of the best Scandinavian designers. 

The name "Georg Jensen" in synonymous with quality and jewelry from every decade is highly collectible.

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".

The Scholtz & Lammel firm was founded in Idar-Oberstein (Germany), a town primarily known for gem-cutting. Designer Sigrid Gottstein created geometric designs for pendants, rings with adjustable shanks, link bracelets, and cufflinks. Until recently, the "S" in a circle maker's mark was assumed to belong to Karl Schibenski. We now know that he was a goldsmith who worked in Idar, but never designed matte enamel. Scholtz & Lammel paper tags proclaimed  (in German,) "fire enamel, veritable hand-crafted." Sometimes, but not always, the "S" in circle mark was found on the clear enamel base. Bracelets were either rigid bangles or hinged segments.  From: French vs. Germany, Modernist Enamel Jewelry, 1930 - 1970, MODERN SILVER magazine, 2007.

BJORN WECKSTROM FLAME BRONZE CUFF

It is hard to find items in flame bronze by Weckstrom because he produced them for only a short period of time in the early 1970s; I believe this cuff is titled "Krupp" but am not positive; band is about 1-1/8" at the widest, most sculptural end; inside diameter of the cuff is approximately 2-1/2" and the opening is about 7/8" with quite a lot of "give" so the cuff could fit a fairly large wrist; marked: "LAPPONIA, BJORN, FINLAND;" patina is spotty, due to the lacquer, otherwise fine condition.
