Gorgeous
sterling silver stuns in this rich pattern that features a natural
theme reminiscent of old world grace. A classic design yet with an
understated touch, this pattern focuses on simple yet refined
elegance. The "Acorn" or "Konge" pattern of sterling silver flatware was
designed by Johan Rohde in 1915 for Georg Jensen. At one time there
were 220 individual pieces in this pattern, but today there is closer to
90 pieces, and remains one of the most iconic Jensen patterns today.

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.
