Hello Andrea and Paul,
GJLd for Georg Jensen Ltd. I never realized/knew but Jensens’s company had a London registered maker’s /importer’s mark being registered as; Danish manufacturer & importer, New Bond Street, London. This particular mark used 1959….1977
Jensen’s company has been registered in London from 1931-1965….1967.
Regards,
Oel

Thank you for your time Oel, its very helpful. I bought it for £1.50 at a boot fair because I really liked it but did not realise its value.
Best wishes
Andie :)
