Designed in 1927 by Harald Nielsen, the Pyramid sterling
silver cutlery pattern was inspired by a fascination
with Ancient Egyptian forms and symbolism which
was in vogue in the late 1920s after the discovery of
Tutankhamun’s tomb. Pyramid’s Egyptian motif, seen in
the stepped pyramid finial topped off with a little ball,
illustrates Harald Nielsen’s contribution to the highly
stylised and geometric Art Deco style. As he once said,
“Ornamentation should emphasise the harmony of the
pieces, but must not dominate.”
