Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day Figurine 1988 Lapwing no. 1916688

Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day Figurine 1988 with the lapwing motif is a charming porcelain figurine that combines a bird motif, collector's delight, and classic Danish porcelain tradition. The figurine shows the small bird sitting on a nature-shaped base with grass details, executed in soft shades of white, grey-brown, and green, which give the motif a calm and lifelike expression. The slightly forward-bent posture and the finely defined wings add life and personality to the figurine.

As part of the series of B&G Mother's Day figurines, this figurine holds a special place for collectors. The animal of the year on Bing & Grøndahl's Mother's Day figurine is in fact the same animal depicted on Bing & Grøndahl's Mother's Day plate from 1988. Therefore, this lapwing figurine is of interest both to collectors of Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day figurines and to those who collect B&G Mother's Day plates and would like to connect the figurine and plate from the same year in the collection.

The figurine is made of porcelain with underglaze, which supports the classic B&G expression and gives the surface depth and gloss. It works beautifully on its own as a small bird figurine in the interior, but it is also an obvious supplement to an existing collection of B&G Mother's Day figurines. Precisely because the series is tied to year and motif, the individual figurines are sought after as collector's items and as personal gifts with history.

Older porcelain figurines like this bring both story and longevity into the home. It is a fine way to choose quality design with history over new production, while at the same time giving beautiful craftsmanship new life. A Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day figurine like this fits well in the display cabinet, on a shelf with other animal figurines, or together with the Mother's Day plate from the same year.
