Learn to spot the difference between 1st and 2nd quality

I am often asked about the difference between 1st and 2nd quality of Royal Copenhagen and Bing & Grondahl. This has prompted me to write a bit about it. Basically it is about an evaluation of the porcelain made in the factory after production. The finished porcelain was lookes over to see if they live up to the quality demands of the factory. Those that were deemed 2nd quality, where then sold at a lower price than 1st quality. Today only dinner service is sold as 2nd quality in factory sales, but the improved technique for burning the porcelain means that all the yearly cllector's items are sold as 1st quality now. In the past a large part of the production could be of a quality that did not meet the quality demand, which made it necessary to sell it as 2nd quality.

Ideas for Decorating with Plates

Once it was very common to have plates on the walls in Denmark. There was hardly a home in the country that did not have plates on the walls. It was very prestigious as plates were much more expensive at the time. Today the plates are not as much a show of wealth as an expression of personal style and ability to decorate your home. After a long period with very minimalistic design people want some life returned to their homes and many have started to use plates due to their versatility and great diversity in motifs. - In my personal opinion plates should first and foremost be used for decoration and joy. - You can use them as wall decoration, for plates on the table, make them into a cake stand or buy a plate rack and set them as decoration. Plates from producers like Royal Copenhagen, Desiree and Bing & Grondahl are of the highest quality, both technical and artistic! - In fact of just as high quality as blue fluted porcelain.
