Royal Copenhagen lioness figurine no. 804 by Lauritz Jensen

This Royal Copenhagen figurine no. 804 depicts a lioness in a resting pose, modelled with a calm and strength that make the motif come alive at first glance. The body is stretched out with the front paws forward, the tail bent in along the side and the head raised attentively, as if it is following its surroundings. This gives the figurine a calm, yet at the same time alert expression, which suits the motif particularly well.

The lioness figurine is designed by Lauritz Jensen and executed in porcelain with underglaze. The glaze highlights the soft transitions in the light brownish and cream-coloured shades, while the modelling comes together beautifully around the shoulders, back, face and paws. The fine details in the face and the natural posture give the figurine character and make it a strong example of classic Danish animal figurine design from Royal Copenhagen.

As a porcelain figurine, this lioness has a special ability to add weight and calm to the home without appearing heavy in expression. It fits beautifully on a shelf, in a display cabinet or as a striking detail on a side table, where the glossy glaze and the sculptural form truly come into their own. The figurine will also be an obvious choice for collectors of Royal Copenhagen figurines, animal figurines and Danish porcelain.

The motif also makes it suitable as a gift for someone who is fond of big cats, nature motifs or classic Scandinavian porcelain art. A figurine like this combines decorative value with craftsmanship quality and is at the same time a piece of design that can bring joy for many years to come.
