HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Bing & Grøndahl (B&G) was a prestigious Danish porcelain manufacturer founded in Copenhagen in 1853 by Frederik Vilhelm Grøndahl and the brothers Jacob Herman and Meyer Hermann Bing. The company quickly gained a reputation for creating some of the world's most beautiful and highquality porcelain art.

B&G is particularly famous for its animal and genre figurines, which capture a sense of character and life. The company's hallmark, the three towers of Copenhagen, was officially registered in 1898 and symbolizes the brand's pride in its Danish heritage. In 1987, Bing & Grøndahl merged with its main competitor, the Royal Porcelain Factory, forming what is now known as Royal Copenhagen. Pieces from the B&G era are highly sought after by collectors worldwide.
