Tea for Two

Having inherited placesettings of Royal Copenhagen‘s Blue Fluted Half Lace from our mother and grandmother, we were happy to see the Ruby Red Full Lace pattern finally available in the United States. 

First produced in 1888, the crimson designs are first hand-painted freehand then finished with an overglaze used in the more lavish Flora Danica pattern, one of the most luxurious collections ever created.

According to Royal Copenhagen, the Blue Fluted design is the company’s oldest and has been produced since 1775.  This was the first service to be made at the Royal Danish Porcelain Manufactory, and to this day it is still known as Service No. 1.  We can’t wait to update our table with the bold new color of Ruby Red which will go beautifully with our traditional Blue.
