Henning Koppel

Henning Koppel was a Danish designer and sculptor whose metalwork defined modernist luxury in postwar Scandinavia. Working primarily in silver and stainless steel, he created tableware and vessels distinguished by organic, flowing forms that rejected ornament in favor of precise proportional relationships. His designs for Georg Jensen, the Copenhagen silversmith, became canonical examples of Danish functionalist design. Koppel's approach synthesized Bauhaus principles with the tactile sensibility of Scandinavian craft tradition.
