This pendant, design No. 2, was designed by Georg Jensen in 1904.
With the opening up of Japan to Europeans in 1854, the Japanese style of decoration and representation of nature was a great novelty in Europe during the late 1800s, and influenced nearly all forms of art - inspiring artists to work with simplified patterns and lines. This early brooch design by Jensen shows him using a clear-cut style which quite possibly includes inspiration from Japanese art. (See Thulstrup, page 25).
