Designed in 1905 by Georg Jensen, the delicate Blossom bud was originally created for his legendary teapot. Not until 1919 did Georg Jensen create the entire cutlery range which is the epitome of the silversmith’s intense and personal interpretation of the Art Nouveau style.

The Blossom pattern is the result of Georg Jensen’s quest to unite art and craft through the organic forms of nature. The flower’s stem winds itself upwards around the handle emerging as a flower bud on the verge of bursting open and illustrates Georg Jensen’s deep inspiration from nature. This service is truly a work of art in silver.

Georg Jensen is one of the world's most significant silversmiths, who formed an international following due to his innovative and sculptural work and his collaborations with other very talented designers. He started in Copenhagen as a sculptor and goldsmith working his way into silversmithing. He was the first to blur lines between artistry and craftsmanship with his ornamental design in the early 1900's. In 1904 her opened his first shop and quickly gained a following, with those stating he "never followed fashion, he created it". In 1918 he opened a much larger shop and when he passed in 1935 he already had an international reputation for superb craftsmanship. He has been reigned as "the greatest silversmith of the last 300 years".
