Jewelry by Nanna Ditzel

I first posted about Nanna Ditzel back in 2011. At that time, my focus was mainly on her furniture designs. However, she was much more than just a furniture designer. She collaborated with George Jensen for a half century and created more than 150 works for his company, most of which was jewelry.

Ditzel's innovation in the use of silver and gold over those five decades has resulted in uniquely modern pieces that stood out as her own. This simplicity and elegance in precious metals helped create the "Georg Jensen look."

    1. So simple, yet so elegant. I'm betting Ditzel herself was equally elegant.
