Royal Copenhagen owl figurine no. 2999 by Theodor Madsen, 14 cm

Royal Copenhagen owl figurine no. 2999 is a classic porcelain figurine with a calm and thoughtful expression. The owl stands upright with closed or half-resting eyes, pronounced ear shapes and beautifully modelled plumage that gives the figurine life and depth. The muted brownish and grey shades over the light body emphasize the lifelike character and make the figurine easy to place in an interior, where it may well add both warmth and character.

The figurine is designed by Theodor Madsen for Royal Copenhagen and made in porcelain with underglaze. This is clearly seen in the soft transition between the colours and the glossy surface, which highlights the modelling in the feathers on the chest, sides and back. It is precisely the combination of the fine craftsmanship and the calm bird motif that makes this owl figurine an obvious choice for collectors of Royal Copenhagen figurines, bird figurines and Danish porcelain design.

A porcelain owl like this looks beautiful in both a display cabinet, on a shelf unit and on a smaller shelf, where it can stand alone or be combined with other animal figurines and bird figurines in porcelain. It is also an obvious gift idea for anyone who is fond of owls, Nordic interior design or older design objects with soul. For many, vintage porcelain figurines are precisely a lovely way to bring lasting qualities into the home, while at the same time allowing beautiful craftsmanship to live on and be appreciated in new surroundings.
