Georg Jensen, Brooch, c. 1905-10


Georg Jensen, Brooch, c. 1905-10, originally uploaded by Gatochy.

Silver, ambar. 7,5 cm in diameter.

"Jensen's jewels -- especially those made in silver -- gather the flower and insects motifs in Art Nouveau with Nordic ornamental patterns. The colour accents are given merely by semi-precious stones and enamel applications."

Scanned and quoted from the book "Art Nouveau" by Gabriele Fahr-Becker.
