Old Danish/Dobbeltriflet
Designed in 1947 by Harald Nielsen, this is his interpretation of the traditional Danish pattern “Dobbeltriflet”. According to a Jensen brochure at the time, “Nielsen has succeeded in keeping the brilliant simplicity in decoration, while giving it a shape that both harmonizes with its classical heritage, and is completely contemporary.”
Mid-Century Modern is an artistic design period that flourished from the mid-1930’s to the mid-1960’s. ‘Modern’ pieces are minimalistic and are characterized by their organic and streamlined forms and lack of ornamental details.
