Crested Tit Bing & Grøndahl figurine no. 1675 Dahl-Jensen

Crested Tit from Bing & Grøndahl is a porcelain figurine with a calm, lively expression and a fine naturalistic character, which makes it ideal for both collecting and interior decoration. The bird is modelled in an upright, upward-facing posture with raised tail, which gives the figurine movement and personality. The soft transitions in the glaze and the subdued shades of white and grey-brown emphasize the classic expression that characterizes many of the Danish bird figurines from Bing & Grøndahl.

The figurine is made after a design by Jens Peter Dahl-Jensen, who is known for his animal figurines with a sure sense of form, proportions and character. Here, the crested tit's small crest, the pointed beak and the compact body are rendered in a simple and precise formal language that makes the figurine decorative from all angles. It is precisely the type of porcelain figurine that adds a touch of nature, history and Danish design tradition to the home without appearing heavy in expression.

A bird figurine like this fits beautifully on a shelf, in a display cabinet collection or as a small detail on a desk, chest of drawers or windowsill. It can stand alone as a discreet eye-catcher or be combined with other Bing & Grøndahl bird figurines for a more cohesive expression. For collectors of B&G porcelain and classic animal figurines, model number 1675 is a relevant and searchable reference, and for many, the older porcelain figurines in particular are also a meaningful way to bring lasting craftsmanship and design history further into a modern home.
