Harald Nielsen was the younger brother of Georg Jensen's third wife, Johanne. He wanted to be a painter, but was drawn into Georg Jensen's silversmith shop, where he started as an apprentice in 1909. From there he worked his way up as designer/director of the blacksmith apprentice school. In 1954, he became forge director and in 1958, he became artistic director, a position he held until 1962.
Nielsen's role as apprentice school director was particularly important after Jensen's death in 1935, as Nielsen ensured the continued high quality of the company's design and production by recruiting talented young silversmiths and designers, and training them to Georg Jensen Silversmiths' high standards.
