Trailblazing Torun

Vivianna Torun Bülow-Hübe, a pioneering Swedish jeweller and close collaborator of Georg Jensen, is renowned as the world’s first celebrated female silversmith. Her groundbreaking work in the mid-20th century challenged traditional design norms and perceptions of femininity, paving the way for future generations of designers.

Natural forms

The reissued designs of the new Vivianna Torun Celebration collection, developed since her collaboration with the House began in 1967, are crafted in sterling silver and characterized by their organic forms, simple shapes, and functional elegance. They not only demonstrate Torun’s deep understanding of form and function, and the seamless integration of jewellery with the body’s contours, but also highlight her enduring inspiration from the natural world.

Further reflecting the designer’s passion for transporting elements of the natural world into jewellery are the gemstones that form an integral part of some of the collection’s designs. From black agate to blue topaz and rock crystal – Torun described the decorative stones as resembling a water drop that falls down a leaf.
