Note: Gundorph Albertus was a very important figure at the Georg Jensen Silversmithy for over 40 years from 1905. He eventually became Assistant Director from 1926 and became the Silversmithy's Artistic Director in 1935. He married the sister of another of Georg Jensen's designers, Harald Nielsen.
The 'Cactus' design by Gundorph Albertus and the 'Acorn' design by Johan Rhode are two of the most popular Jensen Silversmithy designs.
