Akkeleje Pattern Silver Serving Spoon by Georg Jensen

Akkeleje is a very rare flatware pattern by Georg Jensen and this is a good-looking 8" long sterling silver serving spoon.

This spoon has a generous rounded bowl and an attractively decorated stem. It is stamped with the Georg Jensen workshop mark for 925 silver from the 1920's and the Danish silver and assay master punches. The spoon is in excellent condition.

Akkeleje is Danish for Aquilegia, the flower known in English as Columbine. It is known as pattern number 79 and was designed by Georg Jensen in 1918 - this spoon being a good, early example.
