Nearly 120 years after Blue Fluted Half Lace was created, Royal Copenhagen is launching Black Fluted Half Lace. Black gives the lace border new life and brings the service up to date with haute couture style. The Black Fluted Half Lace sets off the white porcelain and creates an elegant, sophisticated unity that radiates both exclusivity and respect for history.

“Blue Fluted Half Lace is a Royal Copenhagen icon. That makes it extremely exciting to be allowed to use this service to shake people’s perceptions that Royal Copenhagen is blue and white. Black Fluted Half Lace is a sophisticated, global product that we already know will appeal to the typical Prada customer in Milan, Tiffany’s clientele on the Upper East Side in New York and a new generation of quality-conscious Danes,”  explains Niels Bastrup, Royal Copenhagen’s Creative Director.

Respect for history
The Blue Fluted pattern is the very foundation stone in Royal Copenhagen’s amazing history. It was the first service to go into production in 1775 and was revitalized and celebrated once more in the late 1880s, when Blue Fluted Half Lace was created by the legendary artist Arnold Krog. The pattern is famous for its abiding popularity,  its timelessness and the painstaking craftsmanship that goes into every single one of its 1,197 brushstrokes.

All items of Black Fluted Half Lace are assembled, painted and glazed by hand.
