Swedish/Danish silversmith Wiwen Nilsson.

Wiwen Nilsson.

Ive gone totally mad about this silversmiths designs! I will probably never own anything by him myself, but a girl can dream!
He started his carrier at the age of 16 working for his dad as an apprentice.
The first time he showed his work was in 1923, but he got really bad criticism and wouldnt get his break through until 1930 when Europe was ready for his modernistic design.
