Royal Copenhagen Amager Children figurine no. 12106, 23 cm

Royal Copenhagen figurine no. 12106 depicts two children in traditional Amager costumes and is a porcelain figurine with a calm, narrative expression. The motif has a fine anchoring in Danish cultural history, where the costumes, posture and the small details in the clothing give the figurine character and presence. The boy stands upright next to the girl, and together they form a harmonious composition that brings to mind old Danish traditions and life on Amager.

The figurine is executed in overglaze and appears with many beautifully painted details. In the pictures, the decorative patterns in the scarves and headwear, the soft color transitions in the clothing and the finely shaped base with gold edge and relief can be seen. The girl wears a light, pleated skirt, dark bodice and purple sleeves, while the boy is dressed in blue trousers, black vest and rust-red shirt. This gives the figurine a vivid and varied play of colors, which makes it interesting to observe from several angles.

Carl Martin-Hansen has here created a human figure in which both cultural setting and personality are clearly present. Amager Children is therefore an obvious choice for collectors of Royal Copenhagen figurines, for those who are fond of Danish folk costumes, or for those who want a porcelain figurine with history and soul in the interior. It looks beautiful in a display cabinet, on a chest of drawers or together with other classic porcelain figurines.

Older porcelain figurines like this often hold a special joy, because they are created to be preserved and appreciated through generations. Choosing a figurine with history is also a beautiful way to bring classic Danish craftsmanship further into a modern home.
