From the age of Art Nouveau, Georg Jensen set up shop as silversmith 1904 in Copenhagen, Denmark. By the 20's, he was an international force to be reckoned with. On this page is just a sample of our treasured Jensen collection.

We do our best to carry a range of silver from European makers both earlier and later. While we offer a wide variety of earlier antique European silver, we also have a strong collection of hollowware items and flatware sets from innovative late 19th and early 20th century European silversmiths such as Puiforcat and Odiot representing France.

If you are even more curious, we suggest our Continental, English and American silver collections as well. We also have a robust selection of Paul Storr and Hester Bateman. And please feel free to browse more Hartman Rare Art on Ebay.

6 Piece Tea and Coffee Service

This beautiful 6 piece silver tea and coffee set was crafted in Denmark by Georg Jensen during the early 20th century. The set comprises a tea pot, coffee pot, 2 creamers, 2 bowls - 1 presumably for sugar, and the other presumably as waste bowl. The set is typical of Jensen's style decorated with hand-hammered surfaces and elegant beaded and fluted elements. This is an assembled set - the tea pot, one of the bowls, and one of the creamers are monogrammed on the base underside with the letters "C.C.M.". The other creamer and bowl are marked with a script monogram on the side of the body with the letters "S.R.S.". There is no monogram on the coffee pot. The numbers and sizes of the pieces are marked as follows: the tea pot is a size 4D, the coffee pot is a size 4B, and creamers are a size 4B, and the bowls are marked 4A. The tea pot measures a total 7.5 inches height and 11 inches length over the handle and spout. The total combined gross weight is 74 troy ounces.
