Bing & Grondahl (B&G) was
founded in 1853 and existed until 1987, when Royal Copenhagen merged with
Bing and Grondahl. B & G, Bing & Grondahl refer to the founders:
Fred. Vilh. Grøndahl (1819-1856), technical director; the brothers M.H.
Bing (1819 - 1883) and J.H. Bing (1811 -1896) as economical directors. This
figurine is marked with three towers in green. This hallmark comes from the
City Coat of Arms of Copenhagen. ‘B&G’ printed below the tower in
green, ‘Kjøbenhavn’ and ‘Denmark’ identify production of 1952-1957. There are also ‘B&G’ in blue
as well as model number 2275 and production painter initials ‘BO’ printed
in green on the backside. Unfortunately, we do not know the name of this
artist. This figurine is fully discontinued now.
