Designed in 1927 by Harald Nielsen, the Pyramid sterling silver cutlery pattern was inspired by a fascination with Ancient Egyptian forms and symbolism which was in vogue in the late 1920s after the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb. Pyramid’s Egyptian motif, seen in the stepped pyramid finial topped off with a little ball, illustrates Harald Nielsen’s contribution to the highly stylised and geometric Art Deco style. As he once said, “Ornamentation should emphasise the harmony of the pieces, but must not dominate.”
This piece measures approximately 8” long and 1” at its widest. This pre-owned piece comes with its original Georg Jensen anti tarnish silver sleeve, marked “Georg Jensen & Wendel A/S” - please see photos.
