Ibe Dahlquist (1924-1996) is one of Sweden's prominent recent silversmiths. She studied at the Swedish School of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm, after which, she started her own silver workshop with Olof Barve. Their breakthrough came in the mid 1950s with the exhibition ‘Contemporary Jewellery’ where they exhibited a series set in silver with fossils and rocks from Gotland beaches. In 1965 Ibe Dahlquist began designing modernist jewellery for Georg Jensen.
