Aluminia Farmer Boy Hans 1948 Children's Aid Day Figurine no. 2547

Aluminia Farmer Boy Hans from 1948 is a charming Children's Aid Day figurine with a clear narrative and personality. The figurine depicts a farmer boy in folkloristic attire with a tall white hat, checked shirt, blue knee-breeches and black footwear, while the light coat is decorated with small blue flowers. The green base gives the motif a fine sense of grass and rural life, which emphasizes the figurine's connection to the farm environment and Danish tradition.

It is precisely this blend of child figure, farmer figure and cultural-historical collector's item that makes the model so interesting. The expression is calm and straightforward, and the hand-painted details create life in both the face, attire and colour scheme. The figurine is therefore well suited to collectors of Aluminia faience, Children's Aid Day figurines and older Danish porcelain and ceramic figurines with motifs from life in the countryside.

According to the existing information, the figurine was designed by Herluf Jensenius and modelled by Hans Henrik Hansen. The marking is stated as JUS Alumina Denmark Fajance. This makes Farmer Boy Hans no. 2547 an interesting piece of Danish figural faience, where both artistic idea and model work come together in an expression that still appears lively today.

Older figurines like this have a special ability to add soul and personality to the home. They can stand alone in a display cabinet, on a shelf or together with other Aluminia figurines and collector's items from the same period. At the same time, it is a beautiful way to preserve older craftsmanship and give quality objects with history new life in a contemporary interior.
