Royal Copenhagen raccoon figure no. 053 Allan Therkelsen

Royal Copenhagen figure no. 053 depicts a seated raccoon in a calm and attentive posture. The figure is modelled with a raised snout and small front paws gathered in front of the body, which gives it a lively and distinctive expression. The grey, black and white shades emphasize the raccoon's familiar markings and give the porcelain figure a fine depth that makes it decorative from several angles.

This raccoon is designed by Allan Therkelsen and executed in porcelain with underglaze. This is seen in the glossy surface and the soft colour transitions, which give the figure a natural and harmonious overall impression. The light base discreetly lifts the motif and makes the seated raccoon appear as a small story from nature, interpreted in classic Danish figure design.

As a Royal Copenhagen animal figure, it is well suited both for collectors of porcelain figures and for those who want a decorative figure with personality. It can stand alone on a shelf, in a display cabinet or together with other animal figures from the same universe. Older porcelain figures like this in particular have a special charm because they bring craftsmanship, history and lasting quality into the home. This also makes them an obvious gift idea for a collector or for someone who appreciates Danish design with a motif from the animal world.

A figure like this is at the same time a beautiful example of the joy of preserving and using things that are created to last. Vintage porcelain with character adds soul to the home and is a sustainable choice when you want interior design with history rather than new production.
