Located in Copenhagen, Denmark, the company became world-renowned for its artistic and high-quality porcelain figurines, often depicting animals and children. The company's hallmark, the three towers of Copenhagen's coat of arms, is a symbol of their heritage and quality. The model number \"1635\" indicates that these were a part of their regular production line. B\u0026amp;G merged with the Royal Porcelain Factory in 1987 to form Royal Copenhagen, making earlier pieces like this particularly sought-after by collectors of classic Scandinavian design and porcelain.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bing \u0026 Grøndahl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52845906559323,"sku":null,"price":26.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/4986\/3003\/files\/57_d46b34e6-56ba-464c-825a-f729df27e6b7.png?v=1776762369","url":"https:\/\/gifteduk.com\/products\/bing-grondahl-b-g-porcelain-blue-jay-bird-figurines-pair-marked-1635-chipped-1","provider":"Gifted UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
