Names, emblems and neighbouring codes

Royal Copenhagen combines three blue waves with a royal factory stamp and painter identification. Bing & Grøndahl has a separate tower-and-initial tradition. The word COPENHAGEN alone does not distinguish them.

What to check next

Read the wave or tower arrangement and the full company wording. Keep painter initials apart from model and decoration numbers, then use the correct factory’s date-mark sequence.
