Inspired by the jagged coast of Scandinavia, these striking silver stud earrings by Georg Jensen have a contemporary abstract appearance that gives them a cool attitude suitable for day or evening wear. The unusual matte finish given to the sterling silver adds a final touch of sophistication.
Award-winning designer Bent Gabrielsen was renowned for his cutting edge and very contemporary designs through out the latter part of the 20th century. His work for Georg Jensen includes the Peak collection where he took the shapes of natural landscapes and abstracted them into clean sharp lines that still look modern and wearable today.

With a history that spans more than 100 years, the Georg Jensen brand represents quality craftsmanship and timeless aesthetic design, producing lifestyle products ranging from hollow-ware to watches, jewellery and home products.
The philosophy of Georg Jensen himself was to create democratic designs possessing both functionality and beauty. His artisanal skill and artistic talent combined with his continuous ability to identify and support design talent was the foundation on which he built Georg Jensen in Copenhagen in 1904.
Georg Jensen’s style embraced the Art Nouveau lines of the day but injected them with a distinctive vigour that continues to resonate today. Serene flowing forms are enriched by exquisitely sculpted ornamentation and his stylised bouquets of flowers and lush bunches of grapes reflect his sensual delight in nature. Now their most important task is to leverage the ideas and principles of the master himself and translate these into the design of the present day.
