Hallo Again - Girl Standing

By Claire Weiss

Being offered on this auction is Girl Figurine made by Bing & Grøndahl of Copenhagen, Denmark. This is B&G Figurine # 2387. It is called ‘Hallo Again, Girl Standing’. Collectors often call it ‘Miss Charming’. It features adorable young girl, who just came to visit her friends. She is taking off her jacket. Girl is shown in her white dress. He jacket is blue. She has a white collar on her head. Sculpture stands on flat pedestal. This looks splendid and very cute. Sculptor Claire Weiss (b. 1906) designed this figurine. Her initials CW are incised on the backside. She was working for Bing & Grondahl for many years and was a creator of many cute children figures like ‘Anne’, ‘Pardon Me!’, ‘First Kiss’, etc. She also designed for Lorenz Hutschenreuther and Rosenthal art departments, creating children as well as dancers.

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, ‘Copenhagen Porcelain’ printed in green semi-circle and ‘Made in Denmark’ identify production of 1970-1983. There are also ‘B&G’ printed in blue and model number 2387 and production artist initials ‘MA’ printed in green. We do not know the name of this painter.

Figurine measures about 2 ½” x 3” on the base and stands about 7 ¼” (19 cm) tall. Condition is immaculate with no chips or cracks found. Colors are bright and vibrant. Please look at the pictures to find out more about this piece.
