About the Item
Danish Midcentury Tenera punch bowl by Grete Helland Hansen for Royal Copenhagen
Beautiful punch bowl complete with eight matching cups made of stoneware and grey glazed ceramic produced by Royal Copenhagen. The bowl and cups are part of the famous Tenera line. Nils Thorsson designed this series in the 1960’s while Artistic Director of Royal Copenhagen-Aluminia. Thorsson designed most of the shapes for this range, and the group of Artists and Designers under him each designed their own patterns and motifs.
The berry decor for this bowl and cups were designed by artist Grete Helland Hansen. Bowls and cups are marked with the Royal Copenhagen hallmark and the artists’ signature GHH.
Grete Helland-Hansen Nash (1939-1999) was born in Oslo, Norway. After studying at the National Academy of Arts, she worked at the Aluminia Factory in Copenhagen and was part of a group of young female potters who created the Tenera range. In 1966 she worked in the USA, where she developed her use of the Japanese raku technique.

Royal Copenhagen
Producers of the finest in Danish porcelain, Royal Copenhagen is a company steeped in tradition. Its celebrated blue-and-white china patterns as well as its famed hallmark depicting the royal crown and three waves — symbolizing the monarch who founded the company and the three major waterways of Denmark — are emblems of master craftsmanship.
Royal Copenhagen was founded in 1775 by Queen Juliane Marie. Years earlier, after the death of her husband, King Frederick V, Juliane’s stepson ascended the throne. Shortly into his reign, he went insane, and the Queen became the head of Denmark and its small empire. She sought to improve Denmark’s economy and founded factories around the country to promote domestic growth and international trade. Royal Copenhagen was one of the first of these. Royal Copenhagen first made dinnerware and vases with blue-and-white motifs inspired by Chinese porcelain, then the rage in aristocratic Europe. Many of these designs are still made today.
Apart from its classic patterns, Royal Copenhagen has adapted to the changing styles of time and appeals to many different tastes. Their prolific body of work includes Rococo-style porcelain statues that incorporate stylistic floral patterns in an Art Nouveau style, as well as modern vases by such noted 20th century Danish ceramists as Axel Salto. Whether used for special occasions or displayed as part of a design collection, Royal Copenhagen pieces represent a legacy of the highest quality.
