In 1955, Jacob Jensen was a young industrial designer work- ing at the design studio Bernadotte & Bjørn. One day, a small Danish company called Rosti asked them to design some plastic kitchen products. The project was assigned to Jacob, who designed a beautiful mixing bowl. It is still in production today and is regarded as a design classic. 29 30 Bernadotte, who was the brother of Queen Ingrid of Den- mark, named the first bowl after his niece, who would later become Queen Margrethe II of Denmark.

Fifty years later, Jacob Jensen Design was asked to design a new generation of Margrethe bowls. We named the new bowl after Victoria, Crown Princess of Sweden, as a sign of gratitude to her great uncle Bernadotte, Jacob Jensen’s former employer.
