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.
