Royal Copenhagen Sparrow Pair figurine no. 1309 or 095 by A. Nielsen

Royal Copenhagen Sparrow Pair figurine no. 1309 or 095 is a classic bird figurine in porcelain, where two sparrows are modelled close together in a calm and natural motif. The figurine has the fine, observant expression that makes Royal Copenhagen bird figurines so sought after among collectors and lovers of Danish porcelain. The soft shaping and the subdued shades in grey-brown and light tones give the figurine a lively yet harmonious expression.

The two sparrows are placed close together, which gives the figurine warmth and presence. One bird sits slightly leaning forward, while the other rises a little higher behind, and together they create a fine balance in the form. On the wings and tails, discreet painted markings can be seen, which emphasise the birds' plumage without appearing heavy. It is precisely this simple naturalism that makes the figurine easy to place in the home, whether it stands in a display cabinet collection, on a shelf, or as a calm feature among books, glass and ceramics.

The figurine is made by Royal Copenhagen and associated with the artist A. Nielsen. The existing registration also states underglaze as the technique, and the model is mentioned as figurine no. 1309 and alternatively no. 095.

As an older porcelain figurine, this sparrow pair also carries the special joy that lies in choosing design with history. There is nothing erotic or overdone here; instead, you get a piece of Danish porcelain with a quiet motif and a form that endures year after year. This makes the figurine ideal as a gift for the collector, the bird lover, or for you who want home décor with more soul and less randomness.
