Royal Copenhagen partridge figurine 2261 Peter Herold

Royal Copenhagen partridge figurine 2261 is a lifelike bird figurine in porcelain, where calm, weight, and movement merge into a higher unity. The motif is the low, compact partridge, rendered in a characteristic forward-leaning posture that gives the figurine life and presence. It is a porcelain figurine that appeals both to collectors of Royal Copenhagen bird figurines and to those who appreciate classic Danish design with a motif from nature.

Peter Herold has modelled the bird with a sure eye for its form and posture. In the pictures, the rounded body, the slightly protruding head, and the finely decorated wings and sides can be seen, where the plumage is rendered in subdued brownish and grey tones. The light underside and the green base, designed as a piece of terrain or grass, emphasize the figurine's natural expression. On the base, the engraved signature "Herold" can be seen, which connects the figurine directly with the artist.

The underglaze decoration gives the surface depth and a calm sheen that suits the motif well. It is precisely the combination of precise modelling, subdued colouring, and a recognizable bird motif that makes this Royal Copenhagen figurine interesting. The partridge is a bird with a strong connection to the open landscape, and the figurine brings something earthy and Danish into the interior.

As an older porcelain figurine, it also contains the special joy that lies in choosing quality objects with history. Vintage porcelain and figurines with soul add personality to the home and are at the same time a sustainable choice, because good craftsmanship is allowed to live on. The figurine stands beautifully on its own on a shelf or in a display cabinet, but can also be combined with other bird figurines, animal figurines, or classic porcelain from Royal Copenhagen.

It is also an obvious gift idea for the collector, the nature enthusiast, or the person who appreciates Danish porcelain, bird motifs, and finely crafted decorative art.
