Bio:
In the early 20th century, Royal Copenhagen introduced a series of naturalistic animal figures, created by the company’s skilled sculptors and model makers. These models, often depicting farm animals in lifelike poses, quickly gained popularity both in Denmark and abroad. The simple white glaze emphasizes the sculptural form, giving the figure a timeless quality.
