royal copenhagen is a danish company that has been producing porcelain since 1775. it was founded as a result of experiments on hard porcelain done by Frantz Heinrich Mueller and funded through a partnership with the royal family until 1868 when the company passed into private ownership. royal copenhagen today is a producer of craftsmanship and design with a contemporary international profile, selling products that are both functional and collectible.

the motifs depicting fungi are now being introduced into the flora danica fungi series. the colors used for the flora danica fungi were determined autocratically by nature, with browns and grays, white, fiery reds and a few purple shades among the golden hues of the forest floor. the result is striking, uncompromising and alluring.

the actual process of painting the flora danica fungi takes a longer time and is more demanding than the other flora danica motifs as each motif or group of fungi is repeated in a smaller size around the edge of the plate or dish. consequently each fungus is painted seven times altogether on each item – meticulously correct every time, down to the last detail of the anatomy of the fungus.
