Svend Lindhart (1898 - 1989), Sculptor
Ib Just Andersen
(1884-1943) sculptor and silver smith. In his early carrier he was
designing jewelry for A. Michelsen and P. Hertz. He continued a lifelong
production of silver and gold jewelry. But he is best known for his
neoclassic Scandinavian design of article for everyday use in pewter,
brass, copper, bronze and Disko. Disko Metal is an alloy of lead and antimony, which was Andersen's own invention and named after the Disko Bay
of Greenland, where he grew up. It was used to produce "Bronze"
items, such as candlesticks, vases, sculptures for common people and also
for models in the foundry, because it was cheaper than real bronze. After
being cast the pieces were patinated as bronze, copper or brass. Just
Andersen had his own show rooms in Berlin, London, New York and Los
Angeles
