This silver bracelet is part of the Capsule Collection created in the mid-1950s. The bracelet has a bold, sculptural design with a smooth, lustrous surface. It is wide and asymmetrical, gradually broadening on one side, where the silver curves upward in a fluid, wave-like motion. This organic shape enhances its dynamic presence. The bracelet opens with a structured two-part clasp, where a latch securely slides into a fitted slot, ensuring a firm and seamless closure. Its substantial weight unmistakably reflects high-quality craftsmanship.
On the wrist, it looks striking and modern, with its mirror-like silver finish emphasizing the bold contours of its design. Its sculptural yet wearable aesthetic reflects Ditzel’s holistic approach, where every detail is thoughtfully integrated. Celebrating functionalism, it balances sculptural beauty with everyday usability, ensuring the piece is both elegant and comfortable to wear.
Nanna Ditzel was born in Copenhagen and studied at the Danish School of Arts, Crafts, and Design before continuing at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, graduating in 1946. In 1954, she became the first female designer to collaborate with the renowned Danish design house Georg Jensen and was a prolific creator of furniture, textiles, and jewelry.
