Hallmarks: One earring is stamped with the post 1945 Georg Jensen maker's mark, the mark for the assay and warranty of the .750/.999 gold, the model number and signed in full as follows: ".750 GEORG JENSEN 18KT 1136C". Nanna Ditzel She was born in 1923. Was a Danish designer graduated from the furniture department of the School of Arts and Crafts in Copenhagen. Has been studying under prof. Kaare Klint at the Royal Academy of Copenhagen. Nanna Ditzel is working with experimental and industrial design furniture, textiles, silver, faience and glass. Has experimented with the use of split-level living for indoors and outdoors. These ideas have been carried out in playgrounds, children’s libraries and showrooms. She is a freelance designer; she has a design office and showrooms in London. Nanna Ditzel started an independent design office in 1946 together with Jorgen Ditzel. The co-operation lasted until the death of Jorge Ditzel in 1961. Nanna Ditzel created many designs for Georg Jensen, mostly jewelry although she also created some hollowware. The relationship between the couple and the Silversmith began when Nanna decided to start designing jewelry as something she could do at home while her children slept. Soon after, a jewelry competition sponsored by A. Michelsen arose, and her designs had won first prize. Later, in 1954, Finn Juhl, who was developing the 50th anniversary exhibition, passed the design work off for the exhibition to Dietzel’s. Five pieces of jewelry were created for this exhibition, which were very well received. Further jewelry designs were created, and many of these pieces would go on to win various awards and prizes. In 1968, Nanna Ditzel remarried to Kurt Heide and relocated to London where they continued to work in the realm of design, establishing their own company Nanna Ditzel Productions Ltd. In 1986, her second husband passed away, and she moved back to Denmark, continuing her work. In recent years, Ditzel has focused mainly on furniture design, such as the Trinidad chair in 1993, however this design has also led to further refinement for her jewelry pieces such as the bracelet #389 in 1994. Ditzel has won many major awards during her long career and has had her work exhibited all over the world. She received the silver and gold medals at the Milan Tirennale (1954 and 1960), the Lunning Prize (with Jorgen Ditzel in 1954) and a gold medal at the International Furniture Design Competition in 1990, and the Thorvald Bindesboll Medal in 1999. She has also taken on the title of Knight of the Order of the Dannebrog, Honorable Royal Designer (1996). From Georg Jensen Holloware, The Silver fund Collection, David A. Taylor & Jason W. Laskey, 2003. Collateral: These earrings are accompanied by a presentation jewelry box. Condition: The overall condition of these Georg Jensen earrings by Nanna Ditzel is excellent. Besides the little normal wear, there is no damage to the gold. This piece has been carefully inspected to guarantee the condition and authenticity. INVENTORY REF: E120124XOEN/.2632
