Georg Jensen himself once compared the splendour of sterling silver to the radiance of the Scandinavian moon. It is this enchanting comparison that inspires the brand’s Georg Jensen Moonlights Grapes jewellery collection, a series of bold and sculptural pendants, rings, bracelets and earrings designed to bring a sense of magic to one’s personal style.
Since 1904, when Georg Jensen set up his silver smithy in Copenhagen, he was encouraged almost entirely by nature taking symbols of the natural world and weaving them into his sterling silver designs. Just a simple glance at his original collections of vases, trinkets and urns and you can find a wealth of motifs like fruits, blossoms, vines, leaves and grapes. Many of his designs also featured the distinctive hammer marks that subtly diffuse the reflection and give an unearthly shimmer than the creator himself compared to moonlight. It is this part of the brand’s history that is forever encapsulated in the modern-day Georg Jensen Moonlights Grapes jewellery collection.
Embracing the Art Nouveau style of classic Georg Jensen designs with contemporary forms and shapes, Georg Jensen Moonlights Grapes jewellery has become one of the Scandinavian jewellery manufacturer’s most iconic and best-selling collections. Each pendant, necklace, ring or earring is characterised by it’s growing sterling silver beaded motifs which bring a sense of movement to your style as if each piece flows and moves with you. The delicate silhouettes also beautifully reflect the light, whether that be of the sun or the moon, twinkling almost as brilliantly as stars for their smooth, polishing finishing.
When it comes to choosing from the Georg Jensen Moonlights Grapes jewellery collection, it’s no easy decision. There are a huge range of stunning designs to pick from including elegant stud earrings, simple pendant necklaces, beaded bracelets and statement rings. One of our favourite pieces if the lariat-style Georg Jensen Moonlight Grapes necklace which features different sized sterling silver beads that join and expand, almost like a growing vine, around the neck. The beads uniquely only trace down one side adding a sense of movement to the design before leading sensually down the chest for a sultry finish perfect for evening wear.
More recently, Georg Jensen released some stunning new additions to their Moonlights Grapes jewellery collection in 18 carat yellow gold. Boasting the same sensual and nature-inspired grape motifs, the gold necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings offer a warmer aesthetic worthy of being bathed in the glow of the sun. We particular love the Georg Jensen Moonlights Grapes earrings that descend in size as the move up the lobe beautifully following the shape of the ear. There’s also a Georg Jensen Moonlights Grapes pendant that pairs perfectly with these opting for the same growing motif but on a 45cm gold pea chain.
