1970s Japanese Dansk Silver Plate Rhino Figurine



1970s Japanese "Dansk Designs" silver-plated zinc paperweight figurine.  Designed by award-winning Swedish silversmith, Gunnar Cyren who was a pioneer of the use of zinc in silverware. On the base the ‘Dansk Designs, Japan’ is embossed including 'GC' for Gunner Cyren and the copyright C logo.  It also states 'EPZ', which is the manufacturing technique used on this figurine meaning - electro-plated zinc.

The figurine has a simple yet elegant design, is very well-made, and extremely tactile.  It  would make a wonderful gift, display piece, as well as a practical paperweight.  The original box is not available.

 In very good vintage condition.  There is some discolouration despite polishing and polishing it which is only really visible in certain light.  I also think this would fade over time.

Dansk Designs are highly collectible.
