While we wait for spring to come…

April 30 we will launch the first organic bedlinen in the in our Kids productline. Arne Jacobsen used a delicate line to draw the playful curves that beautifully complete the new bed¬ding. The sketch for YPSILON was drawn in the 1950s, when the trend for geometric shapes arose.

From 26 March our GJD OUTDOOR collection 2012 is available. The collection consist of the damask tablecloth GJD POPPY designed by Nina Ferlov. The damask tablecloth is woven in the familiar damask quality and, as a completely new feature, has a stain-repellent surface which is neither seen nor felt. The collection also features the fresh, striped design GJD LINE in bright summer colours which are available as tea towels, placemats, runners and cushions.

GEORG JENSEN DAMASK gives Christmas a warm welcome with wonderful products to adorn decorative Christmas tables, bring happiness when given as presents and provide warmth during the cold winter. The classic and popular CHRISTMAS TABLECLOTH will be launched in two new colours; John Becker’s retro-style tea towels have been given a touch of Christmas and the popular MEADOW bed linen is launched in new, inviting and beautiful colours. Last, but not least, New Year is celebrated with the CRYSTAL damask tablecloth in two new colours.

FUSUMA, Georg Jensen Damask's latest design, is the result of a fortunate cultural encounter where Asiatic fashions meet Nordic. Designer Rika Kawato, born in 1981, is the daughter of a Danish mother and a Japanese father, and this influence from two such widely differing cultures has always been a fundamental element of Rika's work as a designer, as can also be seen in her FUSUMA tablecloth. FUSUMA is sold from week 40.

In 1963 the textile designer John Becker (1915-1986) designed the tea towel which launched GEORG JENSEN DAMASK’s designed tea towel production. Becker’s deliberate check pattern and stripes were a substantial success and ever since, tea towels created by designers have been a large and stable part of the product range. The 2011-version of BECKER 63 will be available in the colours Brown Sugar, Peppermint, Candyfloss and Green Tea. These colours have a strong retro touch, and the old archives were consulted in order to match the original shades as closely as possible.
