The superb Scandinavian Moderne "Acanthus" or "Dronning" pattern of sterling silver flatware was designed by Johan Rohde in 1917 for Georg Jensen.

Johan Rohde is known for his innovative and unique style. While his patterns are elegant and classic, they are a uniqe version of Art Nouveau and still fit in well with today's world. Johan Rohde became one of the first people to work with Georg Jensen after Rohde had Jensen commission some pieces for his personal collection in 1906. Georg Jensen was impressed so much by his style that he invited him to design a collection. In his favorable Acorn pattern, you can see Rohde used decoration to emphasize form as well as hammer marks and oxidisation. His work is both sensitive and understated.
