The spring sunshine is finally beginning to show its face, inspiring dreams of light summer evenings in the garden with food cooked on the barbecue and enjoyed in the company of friends and family. POPPY is not only a symbol of summer, but also the name of the latest damask tablecloth in the GEORG JENSEN DAMASK collection.

The winter chill may still bite our cheeks, but the days are getting longer and there’s a vague hint of spring in the air. To mark the coming of spring, GEORG JENSEN DAMASK is launching a new design in the GJD product line called GJD STRIPES. The beautiful new tea towels bring the joy of spring into your home, livening up the kitchen with their light, fresh hues while we wait for brighter spring days to arrive.

Increased sales in Scandinavia, sharp cost management and the phasing out of unprofitable activities are the main reasons Georg Jensen Damask can today present its Annual Accounts showing a 12% increase in turnover.

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 and create a point of contact where the sparks really fly. 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.
