It is no longer just for decoration!

It has become common to buy things that have a function. The decorative items should not just be for decoration and dust collection! They should also be put to use. This is also the case for the many beautiful dishes and ashtrays ...which they are no longer called by the way!!!   I Danish homes and shops like ours there are many truly beautiful dishes that are currently being brought forth in the many small homes.   For example it has become popular to serve fish in the wellknown Royal Copenhagen fish dishes. These dishes have been very popular for decoration, but today they are also used for serving crab salad, shrimps etc.   Dish with Crab for serving seafood, Royal Copenhagen no. 1022313, 16cm x 16cm Before: 68.75 EUR Now: 33.7 EUR See more Dish with Crayfish for serving seafood, Royal Copenhagen no. 1022314, 16cm Before: 71.32 EUR Now: 39.93 EUR See more Dish with Crab for serving seafood, Royal Copenhagen, 6cm x 24cm x 20cm Before: 101.37 EUR Now: 66.99 EUR See more Faience from Royal Copenhagen has become popular again The colourful faience dishes from Royal Copenhagen are very decorative.

Bjorn Wiinblad Guide

Are you among those, who like Bjorn Wiinblad's art, but have difficulty figuring out the many different types of Bjorn Wiinblad items, then read on. Bjorn Wiinblad's life motif was always "to make people happy" and he got the nickname "The happy son of nature". He had a deep love for oriental art, which was reflected in his personal style. Bjorn Wiinblad had an original talent.  Bjorn Wiinblad was born on 20th September 1918 in Copenhagen, Denmark, and died 6th June 2006. He started as an apprentice typographer and attended the technical school at Frederiksberg 1936-1939. Then he attended the art academy under Aksel Jorgensen in the period from 1940-1943.  He was educated by Lars Syberg in Taastrup and from 1946 he was an artist at Nymolle Fayence Factory, where many items were produced from Bjorn Wiinblad's drawings. Bjorn Wiinblad and Nymolle From 1946 Bjorn Wiinblad worked as an artist at Nymolle Fayence Factory, where his international career started. At Nymolle Bjorn Wiinblad created his characteristic series in red, black and green. As an example the monthly plates can be mentioned, they are also known as butterboards. Furthermore there are seasonal plates in different sizes and many decorative plates, vases, flower pots, mugs, candleholder etc. in his characteristic style. Many of the items produced at Nymolle, where made in large numbers and you can still be lucky to find these at reasonable prices. - It must be mentioned that these items have become so popular that they are becoming difficult to find.

Bjorn Wiinblad and Rosenthal (Germany) For many years Bjorn Wiinblad collaborated with the large German glass and porcelain producer Rosenthal. Rosenthal is known for its innovative quality products and for seeking new paths and launching atypical products with an often bold choice in colours and shapes that catch you despite their unique expression. The collaboration between Bjorn Wiinblad and Rosenthal was a great success. Bjorn Wiinblad had great freedom in creating and developing. He made many plate series in porcelain and glass, as well as dinnerware and decorations. Most notably he designed the dinnerware for the 2500th anniversary of the Persian shahdom. Below you can see different examples of things produced at Rosenthal in Germany (Notice the large hurricane candleholders that are also designed by Bjorn Wiinblad and are now produced at Rosendahl in Denmark). Find Hurricane Candleholders here.

Bjorn Wiinblad's Workshop (Kgs Lyngby) Bjorn Wiinblad's own workshop in Kgs. Lyngby opened in 1952 and closed around 2010 a few years after the death of Bjorn Wiinblad (6th June 2006). The items made here were often hand painted and more artistic than the factory produced works that Bjorn Wiinblad made for Nymolle and Rosenthal. At his own workshop he produced waterfontains and tiles as well as a huge production of figurines, vases, candleholders and dishes etc. - These items were produced and sold in much smaller number and were typically much more expensive. - Many probably know his annual figurines that had a sales price of about EUR 520 per piece in 2008. We sell these items really fast and at the moment we have hardly any of the items in stock! Bjorn Wiinblad Denmark After the death of Bjorn Wiinblad Rosendahl in Denmark (Not to be confused with Rosenthal from Germany) bought the rights to parts of Bjorn Wiinblad's design. - These are marketed under the name Bjørn Wiinblad Denmark today. Bjørn Wiinblad Denmark produces a large range of decorative items. Below you can see examples of these products.
