COPENHAGEN -a modern interpretation of an original silver hollowware design

COPENHAGEN is a contemporary take on a Søren Georg Jensen piece first created in 1960. Georg Jensen began as a silversmith workshop. The collection pays tribute to this legacy but updates the style and material to give it a current edge. The candlestick was originally created in 1960 as an altar candle for use in a modern Scandinavian-style church. The 2007 version is in stainless steel and holds two tapered candles-the effect is striking. The structure of the candleholder is in many ways an iconic example of clean-lined Danish design of the post-World War II era. An essential part of the story of Scandinavian design.
