About Kay Bojesen:
Kay Bojesen (1886-1958) was a student of Georg Jensen, trained as a silversmith from 1906. After a few years in Germany and France, he started working as a silversmith in Copenhagen. Fortunately, Kay Bojesen was far too curious to limit himself to refining metals, and in the 1920s he began experimenting with other materials. In the course of his exploration, he discovered wood as a material with very special possibilities for industrial treatment and styling.
