Bio:
Evald Johannes Nielsen (1879–1958) was a Danish silversmith and a prominent figure in the Danish Arts and Crafts movement. Following his apprenticeship and study travels in Europe, he established his own workshop in Copenhagen in 1905. He became particularly renowned for jewellery, hollowware and cutlery characterised by distinctive organic flower, leaf and bud motifs. Nielsen served as master of the Copenhagen Goldsmiths Guild from 1918 to 1948, and his work gained international recognition through numerous exhibitions and awards.
