Royal Copenhagen

Royal Copenhagen was founded in 1775.
For more than 235 years they have produced products with the deepest respect for not only their traditions, but also the finest craftsmanship.
Royal Copenhagen is known worldwide for for its beautiful porcelain, and for maintaining their classic blue and white porcelain, both made and painted by hand.

My own experience: A few years ago I bought the chassis ‘White Fluted’, which fits everything. I am particularly fond of their thermal mugs that I use many times during winter. Thermo cups are cold and easy to hold in your hand while the drink is piping hot.

In Danish: Royal Copenhagen blev grundlagt i 1775.
I mere end 235 år har de fremstillet produkter med den dybeste respekt for ikke alene deres traditioner, men også for det ypperste håndværk.
Royal Copenhagen er verdensberømt for sit smukke porcelæn og fastholdelse af det klassisk blå og hvid porcelæn, der er både fremstillet og malet i hånden.

Mine egne erfaringer: For et par år siden købte jeg stellet ’Hvid Riflet’, som passer til alt. Jeg er især glad for deres termokopper som jeg især bruger om vinteren. Termokopperne er kolde og nemme at holde i hånden mens drikkelsen er rygende varm.
