Bringing a sense of timeless style to your dinner table, the Bernadotte salt & pepper shakers are the obvious choices for any serious food and design enthusiast.
The first Bernadotte pieces were released in 1931, inspired by the functional style of that time. They were designed by Swedish Prince Sigvard Bernadotte – and his namesake collection is one of the most popular and successful collaborations in the history of Georg Jensen.
The Bernadotte salt and pepper shakers are inspired by the original designs of Sigvard Bernadotte – and they are made from stainless steel. They are sold as a pair – and they are the perfect gift for any occasion.

Sigvard Bernadotte
Prince Sigvard Bernadotte (1907-2002) was trained at the Kungliga Konstakademien in Stockholm in 1929. The prince’s long affiliation with Georg Jensen represents another chapter in the rich history of Scandinavian design. His Bernadotte collection has been and continues to be a favourite for generations.
Prince Sigvard Bernadotte (1907-2002) was trained at the Kungliga Konstakademien in Stockholm in 1929. The following year he saw the Stockholm exhibition of Gunnar Asplund, which marked the breakthrough of functionalism. This influenced Bernadotte’s own style and he incorporated the ideals of functional elegance into his design thenceforth. Shortly afterwards, Prince Sigvard Bernadotte and Georg Jensen began a long and fruitful cooperation, in which the new functionalism was at the centre of a more modern interpretation of the work of silver.
