Bio:
Founded in 1775, Royal Copenhagen produced a wide range of finely detailed figurines throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, many inspired by Danish and Scandinavian folk costumes. The Juliane Marie mark, used on several of these works, reflects a period characterized by classical forms and meticulous hand-painting.
