Does this pattern have an official name?

Looks like it's a not-full-line pattern. Jensen had a lot of patterns like this--with the little berries or beads, bent silver, etc.--that were not made in full lines. I think they are usually numbered. Below is a salt spoon in the same mode, numbered 110.

This pattern is one of Georg JEnsen's ornamental patterns. It is pattern #42.
The number is usuallly impressed on the reverse of the serving piece near the mark. More information on this subject can be found in the flatware section of GEORG JENSEN A TRADITION OF SPLENDID SILVER By Janet Drucker

Ornamental or unique pieces are marked with a number. There was never a pattern name assigned to these pieces. They were designed to accompany any Georg Jensen flatware pattern. These numbered pieces are all hand made and there were probably 300 different numbers. Today there are about 15 such pieces made.
