I'm researching Richard Dimes, who worked in Boston between C.1908 - C.1955. Either the search function isn't working or there isn't much in the Forums on him. I'm particularly interested in his association with Georg Jensen. Any thoughts or inspiration?

Hi. I took a quick look at the several references we have on Georg Jensen and find no mention of Richard Dimes. What was the nature of the association between Dimes and Jensen and what is your source for the connection?

I've seen several items in the Danish Modern style for sale lately by Dimes and referencing Jensen. At least one says Dimes did commissions for Jensen USA. I came across this recently, "Richard Dimes Sterling Silver Water Pitcher, Retailed by Georg Jensen, USA" on 1stdibs. I don't believe we can post links(?) At any rate, I'm interested in ANYTHING on Richard Dimes, but nothing comes up in search on the Forums (though I may be using Search wrong!)
