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. |

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.
This
wonderful, matte enamel jewelry is widely collected. |

Bjorn Weckstrom is an internationally recognized sculptor/jeweler. He
won the Lunning Prize in 1968. His "sculptural jewelry plays with volumes and surfaces, alternating the light reflections on
shiny and matt silver." One of his space series pieces, a necklace titled
"Planetary Valleys" was worn by Princess Leila in the 1977 "Star Wars"
movie. Weckstrom's work has been featured in museum shows in many countries.
His gold pieces are also extraordinary--he
returns the gold to the look of raw nuggets. Each piece is a miniature
sculpture, an art form within itself.

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.
