Bing & Grøndahl trout figurine no. 2169 or 449 by Svend Jespersen

Bing & Grøndahl trout figurine no. 2169/449 is a lifelike porcelain figurine with a vivid and calm expression, which makes it a fine choice for both collectors and those who appreciate classic Danish design. The figurine is designed by Svend Jespersen, who is known for his animal figurines, and here he has captured the character of the fish with a simple, precise and convincing form.

The trout stands low and streamlined with a slightly open mouth, defined fins and a beautiful glaze in blue-grey and white shades. The dark spots and the light ring-shaped markings on the body emphasize the natural motif and give the figurine depth and life. The underglaze decoration contributes to the soft play of colours and the smooth surface that characterise porcelain figurines from Bing & Grøndahl.

This fish figurine fits beautifully in a collection of Bing & Grøndahl figurines, but can also stand alone as a decorative feature in the home. It works well in both a display cabinet, bookcase, summer house or on a desk, where it adds personality and a touch of Nordic nature. Older porcelain figurines like this have a special charm because they are created with care and craftsmanship quality, and they bring history and soul into the interior. This also makes them an obvious gift idea for collectors, anglers or anyone with an interest in Danish porcelain and animal figurines.
