Dish with Cover, no. 525

1935

Designed by Harald Nielsen (Danish, 1892–1977) Made by Georg Jensen Sølvsmedie A/S, Copenhagen, Denmark (1904–present)

As with Harald Nielsen's other hollowware designs, the surface of this dish is undecorated, embellished only with upswept berry handles and finial. Nielsen often limited himself to naturalistic ornaments like leaves, fruit, or small animals against the backdrop of simple, clean lines.
