Designed in 1916 by Georg Jensen himself, the "Beaded" pattern is a delicate and simply elegant design that is representative of the early 20th century Art Nouveau style. The pattern's hammered surface and simple row of beads, which accentuate the handle, make Beaded one of Georg Jensen's most classic silver flatware patterns. Georg Jensen is one of the world's most significant silversmiths, who formed an international following due to his innovative and sculptural work and his collaborations with other very talented designers. He started in Copenhagen as a sculptor and goldsmith working his way into silversmithing. He was the first to blur lines between artistry and craftsmanship with his ornamental design in the early 1900's. In 1904 he opened his first shop and quickly gained a following, with those stating he "never followed fashion, he created it". In 1918 he opened a much larger shop and when he passed in 1935 he already had an international reputation for superb craftsmanship. He was reigned as "the greatest silversmith of the last 300 years" when he passed.
