<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"><tr><td><em> 1952-1958 period</em></td></tr><tr> <td width="100%"> The factory mark at the base of this beautiful Bing and Grondahl porcelain seal figurine appears to indicate that it was made in the 1952-1958 period (it has a B&G Kjobenhavn Danmark in Green and a B&G in Blue). It also has what appears to be the initials JP, most likely the modeler's or painter's mark. The blue B & G (Bing & Grondahl) refers to the founders: Fred. Vilh. Grondahl and the brothers M.H. Bing and J.H. Bing. The three green towers in the hallmark represent the Coat of Arms of the City of Copenhagen. If you compare this early piece to figurines made today, its superior craftmanship and artistry is evident. In very good condition.
