With a history that spans more than 100 years, the Georg Jensen brand represents quality craftsmanship and timeless aesthetic design, producing lifestyle products ranging from hollowware to watches, jewellery and home products.
The philosophy of Georg Jensen himself was to create democratic designs possessing both functionality and beauty. His artisanal skill and artistic talent combined with his continuous ability to identify and support design talent was the foundation on which he built Georg Jensen in Copenhagen in 1904.
Georg Jensen’s style embraced the Art Nouveau lines of the day but injected them with a distinctive vigour that continues to resonate today. Serene flowing forms are enriched by exquisitely sculpted ornamentation and his stylised bouquets of flowers and lush bunches of grapes reflect his sensual delight in nature. Our most important task is to leverage the ideas and principles of the master himself and translate these into the design of the present day.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
Elegant and modern, the Alfredo carafe is a striking example of how an everyday object can be made into something special without sacrificing functionality. The gracefully tapered neck is not only beautiful but it also makes the decanter easy to hold when pouring. And the quirky oak stopper makes the carafe a talking point over dinner while also providing practical use.
Argentinian-born designer Alfredo Häberli believes that even objects that you use every day should be given a sense of character and style. His sculptural shapes attract attention but never at the expense of functionality.
The Alfredo carafe is made from clear glass that contrasts beautifully with the natural carved oak of the stopper. It holds up to 1 litre of water, wine or fruit juice.
