Modernist Scandinavian Denmark Pewter Cross Necklace Signed Jorgen Jensen

Here is a handwrought cross by Danish firm Jorgen Jensen Solvsmedie. It is a large cross, on a thick silver colored chain. The back has the stylized JJ mark (j backwards J) of Jorgen Jensen. It also has a design mark, 102. The cross measures 2 inches across and 3 inches long. The chain is approximately 31 inches long. It does not have a clasp, but fits over your head. There is no metal marking, but I believe it is made of pewter. Jorgen Jensen was Georg Jensen's second son and also a silversmith. He trained with the German goldsmith Leonhard Ebert and studied at the City School of Arts and Crafts in Munich. He then trained at the Georg Jensen silversmith and was a member of the company from 1917 to 1923. thereafter until 1936 he owned his own workshop in Stockholm but rejoined Georg Jensen in 1936 and worked as a silversmith there until 1962. He designed jewelry and hollow ware and his pieces show an evolution from the early forms that are reminiscent of Johan Rohde to straighter lines and less ornamentation more closely resembling Sigvaard Bernadottes work. His work has been exhibited widely in Europe and North America
