Georg Jensen - Unsure of Designer

Postby dognose » Sun May 01, 2016 8:04 am

Hi,

A Georg Jensen salt and Pepper with a London import mark for 1936:

Is the designer Oscar Gundlach-Pedersen? And is the pattern 'Paralell'? I have never seen this designer mark before.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Hi again,
Excuse me for having linked to a commercial website. His biography and patterns can be found elsewhere, too.
One more thing to add; Georg Jensen Ltd. was not an exclusive importer. George Stockwell for Stockwell & Co Ltd imported GJ at the time, with London and Birmingham import marks.
Regards
