Danish Porcelain Royal Copenhagen was founded in the late 1770's by Frantz Mueller. We all know the famous Flora Danica service they still make after it was first commissioned in 1789. In the 19th century a few fine specimen of vases, etc. were made but generally the quality declined. Around the mid 1880's Arnold Krog became the art director and he developed the underglaze painting style that is commonly seen on most of Copenhagen's porcelain today. It was also copied at Meissen among others. And in the 1890's some cool glazes were developed like the crystalline or Oxblood glazes. Their porcelain is marked with three wavy blue lines and after 1880 a crown was added to them. Rarely the three waves mark is impressed. A second maker of porcelain in Denmark is known as B&G or Bing and Grondahl . They pretty much copied the Royal Copenhagen style.
