Royal Copenhagen Icelandic falcon figure no. 1661 or 109

Royal Copenhagen Icelandic falcon is a distinctive bird figurine in porcelain that combines lifelike depiction with strong sculptural calm. The figure shows a seated falcon with an attentive gaze and upright posture, placed on a rock-shaped base. The cool grey shades in the plumage, the light head, and the greenish base give the figure a vivid and harmonious expression that immediately adds character to the room.

The motif is executed with great sensitivity to the bird's anatomy and movement. The plumage is modelled in fine layers, giving the surface depth and variation, while claws, beak, and gaze emphasize the bird of prey's concentrated strength. It is precisely the type of porcelain figurine for which Royal Copenhagen is known: naturalistic, well-balanced, and created with respect for both motif and craftsmanship.

The figure is designed by Per Herold for Royal Copenhagen and has figure number 1661, also referred to as 109. It is made of porcelain and described as underglaze decorated, which suits the soft transitions in the grey-white colour scheme beautifully. As a bird figurine, it is suitable both as a solitary piece on a shelf, in a display cabinet collection, or as part of a larger collection of Danish design and classic animal figurines.

Older porcelain figurines like this one have a special presence in the interior. They bring history, craftsmanship, and personality into the home and are at the same time a beautiful choice for those who appreciate quality items created to last for many years. Icelandic falcon is also an obvious gift idea for collectors or for someone who is fond of Royal Copenhagen, bird figurines, and Danish porcelain with soul.
