The Service

This extensive 134 piece canteen of silver flatware and cutlery is in one of the most sought after patterns of the 20^th century, Georg Jensen’s Acorn Pattern. The service provides for up to 10 pieces for 12 place settings with a good range of serving items and some optional extras.

All the pieces were made by Georg Jensen and mostly bear the post-1945 Jensen workshop mark. Some items are stamped with English import hallmarks for the mid/late thirties, but all pieces match and are in the same pattern

The service includes 12 of each of the standard dining pieces, plus the bonus of tea knives (for use as a side knife or for dessert), cake/pastry forks and fruit spoons. The extensive array of serving items should suit most people’s requirements, but if there is something specific that is wanted, then please contact us as we may well have it in stock.

Acorn Pattern

Acorn is probably the best known Jensen flatware pattern and was designed by Johan Rohde in 1916. It is also known by its Danish name of Konge. It has a stylized acorn motif surmounting two scrolls to the terminal of the ridged stem. It has a lovely elegant feel that has inevitably lead to it become one of the most popular and highly sought after of all Jensen flatware patterns.

Georg Jensen

Georg Jensen was a Danish silversmith who opened his first silver workshop in 1904 in Copenhagen. He was to become the most renown maker of silverware in the World with shops in London, Paris, New York, Berlin and Stockholm. His company embraced the Art Deco movement of the 1920’s and 30’s and some of his most important patterns were designed during this period. Many of the Jensen flatware patterns have endured the test of time and remain highly popular today.
