Bing & Grøndahl Emilie on cello annual figurine 2005 RC no. 1249159

Emilie on cello is Bing & Grøndahl's annual figurine from 2005 and an atmospheric porcelain figurine that captures the concentration and calm of a musical moment. The young cellist sits absorbed in her playing with the bow guided confidently across the strings, while the entire expression of the figurine centers on the music and the quiet intensity that characterizes the motif.

Sven Vestergaard has created an annual figurine with a warm and recognizable motif, where both posture and details bring the figurine to life. The fair-haired girl with red hair ribbons, dark clothing and the natural-colored cello is modeled with an eye for both movement and presence. The small chair behind her and the focused working posture emphasize the motif as a music figurine with a clear relation to cello, classical music and the joy of playing an instrument.

As a Bing & Grøndahl annual figurine, Emilie on cello also appeals to collectors of B&G figurines and annual figurines. The figurine fits naturally into a collection of porcelain figurines from the series, but also stands strongly on its own as decoration in the home. It would be ideal for music lovers, cellists, teachers or as a gift idea for someone who loves classical music and Danish porcelain art.

The underglaze decoration helps give the figurine the characteristic soft depth and durable finish that many collectors associate with classic porcelain figurines from Bing & Grøndahl. For those who collect annual figurines or are looking for a figurine with a musical motif, this is a fine example of how craftsmanship and storytelling meet in one and the same figurine.

Older figurines like this also hold a special value today. They are created to last, collected with care and can still find a beautiful place in the modern home. Choosing porcelain with a history is at the same time a way to give good craftsmanship new life and let enduring qualities pass on to the next generation.
