Marc newson: a tea set for 100,000 euros

Marc Newson created a silver set for Georg Jensen. This is the first collaboration of a world-famous industrial designer with a Danish company. Limited edition - 10 subscription sets. The price of each set is 107,000 euros. The craftsmen of Georg Jensen make an order for three months, the brand is stamped with the mark and the signature “MN” - Mark Newson.

Georg Jensen — бренд с более чем вековой историей — имеет высокую репутацию первоклассного фабриканта часов, ювелирных украшений, аксессуаров, посуды и столовых приборов ручной работы, для которого эстетика и современный образ вещи имеет приоритетное значение. Помимо Ньюсона Georg Jensen уже привлек к сотрудничеству других мастеров art&design — голландских дизайнеров дуэт Scholten & Baijings и Альдо Баккера (Aldo Bakker). В сервиз Марка Ньюсона входят пять предметов: чайник, кофейник, молочник, сахарница и поднос из серебра 925 пробы. Чайник, кофейник и молочник украшены ручками из бивней мамонта. Периметр подноса — изящным ротанговым плетением.

The design process and engineering improvements required about six months of work. Over the first set worked the master jeweler in the third generation, whose grandfather knew the founder Georg Jensen. The novelty turned out in the spirit of fashion trend MAKE, when 3D-prototyping is combined with the highest quality of manual execution.

For Mark Newson, whose creative arsenal covers jets, yachts, bicycles, cameras, Apple software and whose couch Lockheed Lounge was sold at an auction for $ 3.5 million, the alliance with Georg Jensen strengthened the reputation of the author of the most expensive design items.

The bottom of the dishes from the outside is complemented by a wooden stand. The lid of the kettle and coffee pot has a swivel opening mechanism. Silver sugar bowl.
