Oscar Gundlach-Pedersen and his partnership with Georg Jensen<\/h4>\n

Oscar Gundlach-Pedersen (1886 \u2013 1960) was apprenticed as a bricklayer at the technical school in Odense in 1906 and at the same time took lessons in house building design, which he followed up with architectural studies at the Academy of Arts in 1917. In addition to various functionalist buildings constructed in Denmark, Oscar Gundlach-Pedersen also appeared as a designer of modern furniture and silverware. He worked as a designer for Georg Jensen for both cutlery and hollow silverware. His designs for silver flatware in the patterns \u201cParallel\u201d or \u201cRelief\u201d (1931) and \u201cLadby\u201d or \u201cNordic\u201d (1937) gained particular international fame due to their ornamentation with smooth, unadorned surfaces and extremely reduced decoration. With \u201cParallel\u201d in particular, Oscar Gundlach-Pedersen created a silver cutlery which, with its extremely reduced and proto-modernist design, anticipates the formal language of the 1960s by a quarter of a century. Gundlach-Pedersen was also the managing director of Georg Jensen from 1927 to 1931 and continued to work as a consultant for Georg Jensen after 1931.<\/p>\n
