Royal Copenhagen Henriette
Royal Copenhagen is the most important Danish manufacturer of porcelain products and was founded in Copenhagen in 1775. It is recognized by its factory mark, the three wavy. The factory's pattern No. 1, still in production, is "Musselmalet", "mussel-painted", called "Blue Fluted" in English-speaking countries. In 1790, Royal Copenhagen was commissioned by the king to produce a "Flora Danica" dinner
service, with gilded edges and botanical motifs. At the Exposition Universelle (1889) in Paris, Royal Copenhagen won the Grand Prix, giving it international exposure.
