Beginning with his artistic sojourn into ceramics, Jensen made his first piece of jewelry in 1899. In 1901, Jensen abandoned ceramics and reinvented himself as a silversmith designer with one of the most famous names of his day, Mogens Ballin. With the faith he had in his work he decided to risk the meager savings he had accumulated to open his own silver shop 36 Bredgade, Copenhagen. Jensen´s designs combined fine art with applied art and his early Art Nouveau designs were a triumph. His business grew quickly until he had retail shops in a New York, Berlin and London. His company is still in existence and to this day continues to produce finely wrought silver designs.(7685RV/BQV)
