description
An exceptional large sterling silver Georg Jensen centerpiece bowl #1068, designed by Henning Koppel in 1958.Handcrafted in Denmark, it is a masterpiece of asymmetrical design. The bowl rests on three distinct and unique points: the first being the base of the bowl itself, the second a leg created by an extended curve of the rim, and the third a leg projecting outward at an angle. The unconventional and asymmetrical form captures the essence of modernist art and design, making it as much a sculpture as it is a functional piece.
