Bio:
“Acadia” (Danish “Blok”) was introduced in 1918 and is one of Harald Nielsen’s most significant contributions to Georg Jensen’s flatware range. With its streamlined functionalist design and Art Deco character, it stands out as one of the earliest examples of modernist influence in Danish silver design.
