He established Dansk in the 50a and established Dasnk as a leader in modern design tableware for the next 30 years. In their book Scandinavian Design, writers Charlotte and Peter Fiell explain, “Designers in Scandinavia have instigated and nurtured a democratic approach to design that seeks a social ideal and the enhancement of quality of life through appropriate and affordable products and technology.” These ideals called for functional design that was simultaneously aesthetically appealing, right in line with the nature of the emerging American lifestyle.Sarah Foelich's reseach paper "Dansk Designs: Reinventing the American Tabletop, 1954-1985" you can read her contextual account of the designs of Jens Quistgaard and Dansk. Danish designers like Arne Jacobsen, Poul Henningsen and Acton Bjørn translated natural shapes into modern vocabularies with new materials and techniques. Jens Quistgaard did this as well, and he also often referred to his muses, Romanesque forms and Norse revivalism. He worked in a range of materials including wood, steel, cast iron, silver, ceramic and glass. The angles and curves present in his designs—spanning from door hinges and hardware, to cookware and flatware, to furniture and wood stoves, to boats and houses—speak volumes about his particular fusion of modernism with history. The synthesis of these expressions combined with the functionality of such objects was what made Quistgaard’s work so attractive to the Nierenbergs and perfect for Dansk Designs.These easy-to-use objects for cooking and entertaining allowed hosts and hostesses to serve meals to their friends and families with style and grace. These tools looked great while they were used for cooking and while they displayed meals for family and friends. Ted Nierenberg said, “In the late ’50s it was a time of suburbia, growing families, togetherness, sharing, friends, home entertaining, and buffet dining.” The Nierenbergs truly entertained this way and they promoted these new entertainment rituals with every product that Dansk Designs produced and promoted. The Nierenbergs were anticipating more than a fashionable fad; they were defining an emerging lifestyle.Very Rare - Quintessential Modern Styling - A delight to look at and to hold Wear consistent with age and useFor details, click on the "Select" drop down box and pick your piece!
