What does the “Stylized GJ monogram set inside a square, with 925S or STERLING and DENMARK” mark mean?

Between 1933 and 1944 Georg Jensen used a square mark that encloses a stylized G and J. By this time the firm worked mostly in sterling, so you will normally find 925S or STERLING and DENMARK alongside it, often with a design number. The square outline is the quickest way to recognize it, since the standard Jensen marks of 1915 to 1930 and from 1945 on are ovals. Pieces sold abroad sometimes also carry a foreign import stamp, such as the Dutch control marks seen on some examples.
