Royal Copenhagen calf stoneware figurine no. 21736 Knud Kyhn

Royal Copenhagen calf stoneware figurine no. 21736 is a characterful animal figurine by Knud Kyhn, executed with the vivid and earthy expression that makes his animal motifs so sought-after. The standing calf is modelled with a raised head and an alert, almost calling posture, which gives the figurine presence and personality in the interior.

The variegated glaze in light and dark brownish shades emphasises the figurine's organic form and gives the surface depth and play. At the same time, the calf stands on a naturalistic base, which completes the whole and highlights the motif's rural atmosphere. It is precisely this combination of calm, movement and materiality that makes a Royal Copenhagen stoneware figurine like this an obvious choice for collectors of Danish design, animal figurines and classic ceramics.

Knud Kyhn is known for his animal figurines with a strong sense of anatomy and temperament, and this calf is a fine example of his assured formal language. The figurine fits beautifully in a bookcase, on a chest of drawers or as part of a grouped display with other animals in stoneware and porcelain. It can also be a personal gift idea for someone who is fond of Royal Copenhagen, Danish decorative arts and figurines with history and soul.

Older design objects like this have a special value because they carry both craftsmanship and story forward into today's home. A figurine like this adds warmth, character and a touch of Danish design history, while at the same time being a beautiful choice for you who appreciate quality items created to last for many years.
