Danish jeweler and silversmith Niels Erik From ( N.E. From) was born in 1908 and opened his first workshop in 1931 when he was still only twenty-three.
Over the next forty years, Niels Erik went on to become one of the greats of Danish design and created many works including floral-inspired designs often set with semi-precious gemstones. These pieces took inspiration from the Skønvirke style. This was a Scandinavian development that formed part of Denmark’s Art Nouveau and the Arts and Crafts movement. This movement usually took inspiration from nature with designs incorporating flowers and floral motifs as well as featuring natural creatures such as fish.
