Notes

This cutlery was originally designed in 1957 for the Royal Copenhagen Hotel, one of Arne Jacobsen's most prestigious architectural commissions, for which he designed all the furniture and fittings. The Arne Jacobsen cutlery was used in the famous Stanley Kubrick science fiction film "2001: A Space Odyssey" from 1968. Anton Michelsen produced the set prior to Georg Jensen who produced it from 1985.
