This brooch, design No. 315, was designed by Henning Koppel in 1954.
Henning Koppel (1918-1981) is regarded as one of the most highly original designers of the 20th century, and to a considerable extent was responsible for propelling Jensen silver to the forefront of Modern design after World War II.
Born in Denmark he trained in drawing, studying at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and then at the Academie Rancon in Paris. Koppel passed the Second World War in Stockholm, but in 1945, at the age of 27, he returned to Denmark to work for the Georg Jensen Silversmithy. During the late 1940s and 1950s, he introduced bold abstract sculptural forms to the Jensen repertoire, focusing initially on jewellery, partly due to shortage of silver supply after the war, and in later years moving towards hollowwares.
Koppel won many awards, including the Lunning Prize (1953), gold medals from the Milan Triennale (1951, 1954 and 1957) and the International Design Award of the American Institute of Interior Designers (1963).
