Royal Copenhagen More Dining and Entertaining
Danish
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.

Flora Danica Porcelain Dinner Service, 153 Pieces
By Royal Copenhagen
Located in New Orleans, LA
One of the most important sets that has come to market, this service for 12 is exceptionally special. Crafted by the revered Royal Copenhagen porcelain Manufactory, this 153-piece complete dinner service is in one of the most prestigious porcelain patterns ever produced: the coveted Flora Danica pattern including the rare and desirable fish and fruit service. The oversize 11 ¾” dinner plates are monumental in size, and all of the serving plates are reticulated. Reticulated, or pierced, plates cost roughly 35% more per plate than regular and are quite rare. The twelve reticulated fruit plates included in this service are particularly remarkable.
The collection also includes the ice dome, the most coveted object of all of Flora Danica porcelain. Ice domes, both extravagantly intricate and exceptionally costly, typically required a three-year waiting period once ordered. The set also comes with a selection of very large serving platters, tureens and other rare serving dishes. This Flora Danica set is the ultimate service for 12 and among the finest ever crafted by Royal Copenhagen.
The set’s aquatic and tropical motifs are almost never seen in even the finest services from the famed firm. The floral motifs are culled from George Christian Oeder's 1771 publication Flora Danica (Flowers of Denmark), an encyclopedia including 3,000 hand-colored copper plate prints depicting every wild plant known to exist in Denmark. A feat of scientific discovery and artistic mastery, Royal Copenhagen's creations are most frequently seen with handpainted botanical motifs.
The original creation of the Flora Danica service...

Questions About Royal Copenhagen More Dining and Entertaining
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 4, 2024To identify a Royal Copenhagen pattern, first examine the backstamp on your piece.

From there, you can search the pattern resource on the official website for that year and find out the name of your Royal Copenhagen pattern. Find a collection of Royal Copenhagen china on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, Royal Copenhagen is still in business but the company has undergone many buy-outs and acquisitions over the years. Originally founded in Copenhagen in 1775, the company imitated the exquisite china from the Ming and Qing dynasties. Royal patronage and top-quality craftsmanship quickly earned the brand a reputation, making its products quite collectible. On 1stDibs, find a collection of authentic Royal Copenhagen plates and other pieces from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024To tell Royal Copenhagen seconds, locate the maker's mark. You'll usually find it on the bottom of pieces. If you see a fine vertical line cut into the three lines of the maker's arched logo, your piece is likely a second, meaning that it didn't meet Royal Copenhagen's quality standards at the time of production. Because the line can be very faint, it may be helpful to use a magnifying glass when examining your piece. Shop a large collection of Royal Copenhagen porcelain wares on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, Royal Copenhagen still produces some figurines. However, most of the manufacturer's most well-known lines are no longer in production. As of January 2022, only the annual figurines are still currently in production. Today, Royal Copenhagen is a brand owned by Fiskars Group rather than an independent company. You'll find a collection of Royal Copenhagen figurines on 1stDibs.
