Bing & Grøndahl Child with seahorse figurine no. 2396 11 cm

Bing & Grøndahl figurine no. 2396 depicts a child with a seahorse in a calm and dreamy motif, where the glossy white porcelain surface gives the figurine a pure and almost poetic expression. The child sits close to the large seahorse, which is held in the embrace with a quiet familiarity, and it is precisely the interplay between child and sea motif that gives the figurine a special character among classic child figurines in porcelain.

The motif is modeled with soft shapes and fine transitions, which suit the blanc de chine technique beautifully. The white porcelain figurine appears simple at first glance, but the closer one looks at it, the more the details emerge: the child's slightly bowed head, the relaxed seated posture and the seahorse's defined shape with the characteristic head and the curled tail. It is a figurine that has both calm, presence and a discreet maritime atmosphere.

The artist Ebbe Sadolin is known for figurines with lively expression and a sure sense of form, and here it is seen in a child figurine that fits nicely into a collection of Bing & Grøndahl figurines. The white blanc de chine finish also makes it easy to place in the home, where it can stand alone in a display cabinet, on a shelf or together with other porcelain figurines with children, animals or maritime motifs.

For collectors and for those who are fond of older porcelain with history, this Bing & Grøndahl figurine is a good example of Danish design tradition, where craftsmanship, motif and sense of material come together in a higher unity. Vintage porcelain figurines like this add personality to the home and are at the same time a beautiful choice for those who wish to give classic quality new life.
