A petite Royal Copenhagen vase in the much-loved Blue Fluted Full Lace pattern. Its tiny four-footed body rises into a slender neck, finished with a flared rim and a delicate band of pierced porcelain. Cobalt-blue flowers and curling foliage have been painted by hand across the warm white ground. The openwork beneath the rim gives the vase a surprisingly intricate finish for something so small—it is very much a miniature, but certainly not an understated one. Blue Fluted is Royal Copenhagen’s oldest pattern and has remained in production for generations. The Full Lace variation is among its most elaborate, distinguished by its richly painted decoration and pierced edges, with each opening cut individually before firing.
