Original Georg Jensen

Silver Six Light Chandelier 307


Considered the rarest piece of Georg Jensen on the open market and
perhaps in the world; The original Georg Jensen silver six light chandelier
#307, designed by Johan Rohde in 1918. Georg Jensen’s first retail store
in Bredgade 21 did not reflect the growing prestige of the brand and
their largest customer of the time, swede Nils Wendel, insisted on a
renovation.

Johan Rohde was tasked with designing the interior and he


designed all the fittings, panels, counters and furniture
including this chandelier. Electricity was becoming
predominant in Copenhagen by this time, Rohde
wanted an electrified chandelier to be at the
center of the store. The design is breathtaking, this
large piece has signs of Art Nouveau as well as
early signs of Art Deco.

Provenance: This chandelier hung in the Georg


Jensen flagship store for many years, it was eventually
moved to the Georg Jensen Museum. It was purchased by
Danish Silver from the Georg Jensen Museum circa 2011 and
sold to a private collector.

Dimensions: 77 cm. x 56 cm.


Price on request Approximate weight 6.8 kg.
