Bio:
Just Andersen (1884–1943) was a leading figure in Danish art deco metal design. He developed his own alloys, including Disko and LB, which allowed for rich patination and a sculptural surface quality. His works range from decorative to functional pieces, all marked by a refined balance of simplicity, elegance and material innovation.
