Bent Gabrielsen Pedersen (1928-2014) was apprenticed to the goldsmith Ejler Fangel qualifying in 1949.
He trained at the Danish College of Jewellery and Silversmithing graduating with top honours in 1953.
He then joined Hans Hansen rising to artistic director responsible for the company’s entire production. In 1964 he won the Lunning Prize.
He left Hans Hansen in about 1968 and joined Georg Jensen where he again rose to artistic director and was allowed to have his own mark on pieces.
He left Georg Jensen around 1974 and thereafter worked with his wife in his own smithy - “Gabrielsen’s Guildsmedie’.
It was in the 1960s that he dropped ‘Pederson’ from his name becoming known simply as Bent Gabrielsen
