Bernadotte
embodies the story of the Georg Jensen heritage. Designed by Prince
Sigvard Bernadotte in 1939, it is the cutlery of choice for anyone who
appreciates the smooth feel of fine design and the resonant timelessness of
dining among loved ones. The Danish King Christian X ate daily meals with
Bernadotte cutlery in Fredensborg Palace.
Prince
Sigvard Bernadotte (1907-2002) was trained at the Kungliga Konstakademien in
Stockholm in 1929. The prince's long affiliation with Georg Jensen represents
another chapter in the rich history of Scandinavian design. His work was
sleek and sparingly-decorated which is a stark contrast to the ornamental
designs in earlier silver. His modern style was a match for the new society.
His Bernadotte collection has been and continues to be a favorite for
generations.
