Boxed Dansk Designs Pig Silver Paperweight Danish Swedish Mens Fathers Day Dads Gifts Presents

Vintage Dansk Designs Silver Plated Pig Paperweight

Comes in its original presentation box.

Excellent vintage condition with only minor signs of age. The box has a few signs of age and is missing its card insert.

This cute paperweight is made of silver-plated zinc.

Designed by award-winning Swedish silversmith, Gunnar Cyren, for Dansk Designs in the early 1970s.

Made in Japan in the 1970s/80s.

Has ‘Dansk Designs, Japan’ imprinted on its base, plus 'EPZ' signifying its manufacturing technique of electro-plated zinc, a technology that the Japanese led the world in at the time.

As well as looking great, these paperweights are extremely tactile and have a real quality feel about them.

These cute paperweights make wonderful gifts.

Dansk Designs was founded in the 1950s by an American who toured Europe seeking out talented designers to produce a range of homewares he could sell to the US market. The range was designed to showcase Scandinavian design to an international audience and due to their wonderful combination of form and function Dansk Design items have become highly collectible including in their ‘home country’ of Denmark.
