No. 203A Bangle Bracelet
This is a Bangle Bracelet. It was manufactured by Georg Jensen Sølvsmedie. It is dated 1968 and we acquired it in 2016. Its medium is silver, rutilated smoky quartz. It is a part of the Product Design and Decorative Arts department.
This bracelet is characteristic of Bülow-Hübe’s work for silver manufacturer Georg Jensen with its simple yet elegant curving forms that were not designed to appeal solely to the wealthy. Bülow-Hübe favored glass or semi-precious stones rather than precious gems, and intended her jewelry to be sculptural extensions of the human form.
