Footnote
Vivianna Torun Bulow-Hube became a freelance designer to Georg Jensen in 1967. This piece designed and executed entirely by her at her workshop in Biot, just North of Antibes, pre-dates the relationship with Jensen. Jensen subsequently reproduced a variation on this design set with different gems.
