Bing & Grøndahl figurine no. 1848 boy with girl over shoulder

This Bing & Grøndahl figurine no. 1848 depicts a warm and lively moment between two children. The motif of a boy carrying a girl on his back has a fine story of play, trust and closeness, and the figurine conveys the special lightness that characterizes classic child figurines in porcelain. It is a porcelain figurine with a calm, harmonious expression, where the movement in the body and the close contact between the children bring the motif to life.

The design is by Michaela Ahlmann, and the figurine bears her sure sense of human relationships and natural postures. The boy stands slightly bent forward with the girl resting over his shoulders, while their pose creates a story that one immediately recognizes. The blue shades in the clothing stand beautifully against the light areas and emphasize the figurine's classic Bing & Grøndahl expression. The glossy glaze and the fine underglaze decoration give the surface depth and calm.

As a child figurine, it fits beautifully into a collection of Bing & Grøndahl figurines, but it can also stand alone as a decorative porcelain figurine with personality. It is ideal for those who appreciate Danish porcelain art, classic figurines and motifs with children. The figurine works well in both the living room, display cabinet, bookcase or on a shelf, where its narrative motif can attract attention.

This type of porcelain figurine appeals both to collectors and those looking for a thoughtful gift with artistic value. The motif of children at play and in close contact also makes it suitable as a gift idea for special occasions, when one wants something lasting and atmospheric.
