Sigvard Bernadotte
Sigvard Oscar Fredrik Bernadotte, Count of Wisborg (1907-2002) was a Swedish industrial designer. He was the second son of King Gustaf VI Adolf of Sweden and his first wife, Princess Margaret of Connaught and was originally known as Prince Sigvard, Duke of Uppland, but lost his royal titles in 1934 when he married a commoner.
Swedish royal prince Sigvard Bernadotte created some of Georg Jensen’s most recognisable sterling silver pieces. His strong functionalist aesthetic combined with bold graphic details define his designs from money clips and cutlery to ice buckets and trays.
