A masterful series in the Danish style
For Georg Jensen, Henning Koppel is the epitome of Danish design. With the Koppel series, manufacturer and designer form an exceptional partnership.
Henning Koppel's designs captivate with their pure lines and warmth – a sign of true mastery. His work softens the strict rules of functionalism with organic, lively shapes.
Henning Koppel worked for Georg Jensen from 1946. A trained sculptor, he had been passionate about art since childhood and always brought artistic influences into his designs. Even his earliest works were small masterpieces of imaginative form.
When Henning Koppel died in 1981 at the age of 63, he had created a remarkably extensive body of work, from cutlery to magnificent one-off pieces. Over the course of his life, he received numerous awards, including the International Design Award and an award at the Milan Triennale. The appeal of the Danish designer's work, expressed in the Koppel series by Georg Jensen, remains as strong as ever.
