No Reserve - Søren Georg Jensen Design coffee service (3), model 1149A, Copenhagen ca. 1965–1975, silver Extremely rare 1149A set, consisting of a thermos flask (or coffee pot), sugar bowl, and milk jug. The set is crafted in 925 silver with black lids. Designed by Søren Georg Jensen (1917–1982), the son of Georg Jensen. From 1962 to 1974, Søren Georg Jensen was not only extraordinarily prolific as a sculptor but also served as artistic director of the Georg Jensen silversmithing firm, which he inherited from his uncle Harald Nielsen. During this period, he was largely responsible for collaborating with designers and guiding their artistic endeavors. A museum-quality set produced in limited quantities by special order only, and therefore considered one of the most collectible and sought-after pieces of Georg Jensen silver. The set includes an extra new insert for the thermos flask. This fragile insert comes in a matching box. Copenhagen, Denmark, ca. 1965–1975.
