Royal Copenhagen Crucian Carp figurine no. 2869

Royal Copenhagen crucian carp figurine no. 2869 is a lifelike porcelain figurine with a calm and vivid expression. The small fish is modelled with fine, defined scales, soft fins and a shape that gives the figurine a natural movement. The underglaze decoration emphasizes the delicate transitions in the motif and gives the surface the clear, smooth character that many collectors associate with classic fish figurines from Royal Copenhagen.

The motif depicts a crucian carp, also known as crucian carp, and the figurine is a good example of the interest in wildlife and precise nature studies that characterizes many older porcelain figurines. The artist Francis Valdemar Platen-Hallermundt has created a figurine where proportions and details work well together, so that the expression becomes both decorative and credible. The discreet colour tones and the glossy glaze make it suitable both as a collector's figurine and a decorative detail in the home.

A porcelain figurine of a fish fits beautifully on a shelf, in a display cabinet or as part of a larger collection of animal figurines from Royal Copenhagen. It can also be used as a personal gift for the collector, the angler or the one who is fond of Danish design and porcelain with history. It is precisely older figurines like this that add character and soul to the home, and they are an obvious choice for you who appreciate good craftsmanship and the joy of giving classic quality objects new life.

The crucian carp figurine is at the same time a fine example of how small porcelain figurines can create variation in the interior. It works both alone and together with other fish figurines, maritime objects or classic porcelain collectibles.
