Carl Poul Petersen was apprenticed at George Jensen and married Jensen’s daughter Inger Jensen before moving to Canada. He kept the style learned from the Jensen workshop while working at Birks before finally opening his own premises, C.P. Petersen & Sons, in 1944. They produced a limited range of pieces entirely by hand including having the distinction of engraving the Stanley Cup and creating its official replica in the 1960s and further National Hockey League trophies. This decision to hand craftsmanship limited output, making surviving pieces difficult to find.

By clicking to ‘Purchase’ you agree to having read the Important Information for Purchasers.
Our primary concern is that you are pleased with your purchase. Please feel free to ask as many questions as you like about a product before clicking purchase. We appreciate patina and the ‘age’ that older pieces acquire, because of this we do not polish pieces to strip away the age (though your local jeweller may be willing to do this for you for a small fee). Secondhand, vintage and antique pieces will naturally show scratches and small marks, these will often appear more noticeable in the enlarged images that we have made available for you. Our images are as realistic as they can be. Although any appreciable defects/damages will be mentioned please do inspect the images as they do form a part of the condition report.
Antique items may longer not be suitable for everyday wear or may benefit from thoughtful consideration when worn with care.
