Royal Copenhagen The Little Mermaid figurine no. 150 in bisque

Royal Copenhagen The Little Mermaid figurine no. 150 is a white porcelain figurine in bisque, interpreting one of the most well-known Danish motifs in a calm and sculptural expression. The figurine shows The Little Mermaid seated on a stone with a softly bent upper body, downcast gaze and fine, simple lines, which give the motif a quiet pensiveness. The matte white porcelain highlights form, silhouette and modelling in a particularly pure way and gives the figurine a classic expression that fits beautifully into both modern and more traditional interiors.

The motif is based on the well-known mermaid created by Edvard Eriksen, and on the figurine the engraved signature "Edvard Eriksen sculp" can be seen. In the white version, the sculpture's form takes centre stage: the smooth hair, the slender body, the discreet tail and the organic stone base come together in a figurine that appears both simple and atmospheric. It is precisely this balance between Danish cultural history and stylish porcelain art that makes the figurine attractive to both collectors and those who want a distinctive design object with a story.

This Royal Copenhagen figurine is made in bisque, which gives a soft, velvety surface without glossy glaze. This emphasises the sculptural character and makes the figurine suitable as a decorative figure on a shelf, sideboard or windowsill, where the light can work across the fine shapes. It also works well together with other white porcelain figurines, where it can add a more iconic and artistic expression.

For many, The Little Mermaid is more than a figurine. It is a piece of Danish design and cultural heritage that still speaks to the present day. As a gift idea, it is ideal for someone who is fond of Royal Copenhagen, Danish figurines or classic motifs with strong recognisability. At the same time, it is a figurine that is created to be appreciated for many years to come.
