This porcelain fawn figurine was crafted by Bing & Grøndahl in Denmark during the 1970s. The sculpture depicts the elegant posture of a young deer with characteristically large, alert ears and subtly modeled musculature. The primary color is a cool, grayish-brown, accented by creamy white spots along the back and sides, while soft transitions of tone highlight the piece’s naturalistic intent. Its surface is finished in a glossy glaze, emphasizing the porcelain’s smoothness and accentuating the gentle curves of the silhouette. The piece stands on an oval base glazed in pale gray, seamlessly integrated with the figure. This figurine exemplifies the Danish approach to minimalist, highly detailed craft, characteristic of Scandinavian art porcelain from the seventies. In very good vintage condition, it shows no visible damage and only minimal signs of age-related use.Within this piece speaks the quiet narrative of the 1970s—a time when Danish porcelain pursued subtlety and fidelity to nature. Reminiscent of an encounter in a northern forest, the form of the young fawn freezes a moment of alertness and innocence; light dances across the lustrous surface like morning sun on dew-laden grass. The restrained palette and realism of detail combine in a composition that forgoes spectacle, instead offering a discreet tribute to Nordic values of simplicity and refined materiality.Displayed on a teak console or an oak shelf, the figurine provides a subtle contrast between glossy porcelain and matte, natural textures. It would work well in Scandinavian-inspired interiors and 1970s motifs, as a singular accent in a vintage ceramics collection or alongside other artful objects.
