Royal Copenhagen The Little Mermaid figurine no. 3321

Royal Copenhagen figurine no. 3321 depicts The Little Mermaid in a calm and dreamlike interpretation, where fairy tale, sculpture and porcelain merge together. The figurine is modelled with a soft, almost poetic expression, where the mermaid sits with her upper body lifted and her gaze turned upward. The classic story is immediately sensed in the motif, and the figurine has that special atmosphere which makes fairy tale figures something more than decoration.

Aage Erhardt has created a porcelain figurine with fine, flowing lines and a harmonious formal language. The light body stands beautifully against the grey-toned tail with indication of scales, while the hair is executed in darker shades and decorated with green and pink details that bring to mind the world of the sea. The underglaze gives the surface depth and a soft sheen, which suits the quiet character of the motif.

This Royal Copenhagen figurine fits beautifully into an interior with a focus on Danish design, porcelain art and narrative decorative art. It can stand alone as an atmospheric collector's item or be combined with other porcelain figurines and fairy tale motifs. For collectors, The Little Mermaid is a sought-after motif, and for many this particular figurine will also awaken the joy of preserving older quality objects that can still find a natural place in the modern home.

A figurine like this is also an obvious gift idea for anyone who is fond of H.C. Andersen, Danish fairy tales, Royal Copenhagen or classic porcelain figurines with history and personality. Here you get a motif that contains cultural heritage, craftsmanship and a timeless expression, which one can take pleasure in for many years.
