Royal Copenhagen Zealand Girl figurine no. 12418

Royal Copenhagen Zealand Girl no. 12418 is an atmospheric porcelain figurine that unites Danish folk costume, floral splendor and classical figurative art in one motif. The figurine depicts a young girl from Zealand sitting on the ground with her legs outstretched and her gaze turned down toward the flowers in front of her. This gives the figurine a calm, thoughtful expression, which makes it both decorative and lively in the interior.

Carl Martin-Hansen has created a figurine with great sensitivity for both pose and details. In the pictures, the Zealand girl is seen in national costume with a white blouse, light apron, green skirt, blue bodice and a characteristic headscarf in white, pink and light yellow shades. In front of her lies a colorful floral decoration with small flowers in, among other things, pink, yellow, purple and light blue tones. The combination of costume, flowers and the seated position gives the figurine a fine interplay between cultural history and decorative craftsmanship.

This porcelain figurine is made in overglaze, which supports the soft color transitions and the many painted details. The motif makes it particularly interesting for collectors of Royal Copenhagen figurines, figurines in national costumes and porcelain figurines with a Danish cultural-historical motif. It fits beautifully in a collection with other folk costume figurines, but can also stand alone on a shelf, in a display cabinet or on a small table, where its colors and calm expression really come into their own.

Older porcelain figurines like this one have a special ability to add personality and history to the home. Choosing vintage porcelain is at the same time a way to appreciate fine craftsmanship and give classic design new life in a modern home. Zealand Girl is therefore both a collector's item and a decorative choice for those who are fond of Danish porcelain with soul and story.
