Royal Copenhagen figurines and Bing & Grondahl (B&G) figurines are the two most well-known Danish manufacturers of figures of all time. Both factories represent quality and craftsmanship of the highest quality and their figurines are known and loveed all over the world from Europe to Asia, Australia and the United States.

Both factories have produced figures of porcelain, ceramics, stoneware and biscuit. There is clearly more porcelain figurines in underglaze than in overglaze. Porcelain figurines can be decorated with both underglaze and overglaze. Most porcelain figurines are painted under the glaze, while individual figures have also been released as overglaze figures where they are decorated over the glaze.

Children, parents and animal figurines from Royal Copenhagen and Bing & Grondahl

The many Danes who are settled in the United States, brought the Royal Copenhagen figurines and Bing & Grondahl figurines with them or have got them as gifts from Danish relatives. It helped to publicize the Danish porcelain figurines and many of the figurines have been passed down from grandparents to grandchildren.

Later on Asia, primarily Japan, opened their eyes to the Danish figures. In Japan it is mainly Royal Copenhagen figurines, which are known. Japan is a relatively new market and the knowledge of Royal Copenhagen figures were first major after Royal Copenhagen and Bing & Grondahl had been merged into Royal Copenhagen. Therefore, the demand for Royal Copenhagen figures in Japan are much larger than the demand for Bing & Grondahl figurines.

Many of the figurines are classics for instance the children playing, reading children, mother with child, boy with dog, etc. The figurines can be displayed individually around the home or they can be grouped together and thereby constitute an entire family. Porcelain figurines come in many sizes from 6-7 cm to large figures of 50-60 cm.
