An interesting and beautiful exhibit of silverware made by Georg Jensen, famous Copenhagen silversmith, is being held on the fourth floor of the Anderson Galleries, 489 Park Ave., this city. The exhibit is being held under the direction of Frederick Lunning, 159 W. 57th St., United States representative for Mr. Jensen. The silverware shown is all made by hand and is entirely the product of Mr. Jensen. The exhibit was brought to New York direct from the Royal Academy in London, where it was on display for some time. Included in the silverware shown is a bowl which was given as a wedding present to the Crown Prince of Sweden and Lady Mountbatten. A handsome bowl recently purchased by the King of Sweden is also included in the exhibit. One of the most interesting pieces shown at the exhibit is a bowl which was purchased by the Louvre Museum at Paris. This is the first time in the history of the Louvre that any article has been purchased from an artist who is still living. It has been the law of the louvre not to make purchases until after the man who made the article has been dead 10 years. Included in the display, which is composed entirely of solid silver, are knives, forks, spoons, silver services, bowls and a beautiful assortment of jewelry. The exhibit opened on Monday, Dec. 10, and will close on Saturday, Dec. 22.
