Antique "EMPIRE" B&G DANMARK Porcelain Handled Scalloped Copenhagen SIGNED & #

Description

Antique Signed "EMPIRE" Porcelain B&G Bing & Grondahl Scalloped, Handled Dish Dinnerware (1915-1947)
There is a speck of blue paint in the middle, front.  It appears to be paint under its glaze.
This was dripped during production.  The last picture shows an indentation on the reverse.  It appears to be some type of maker's marking.  It is NOT damage to the item.  However, I am unable to read it.
Bing & Grøndahl was founded on April 15, 1853, by Grøndahl, a figurine maker for the Royal Danish Porcelain Factory, and the Bing brothers, who were art and book dealers. The factory was located on the corner of Vesterbrogade and Rahbek Allé in the
Vesterbro
area, at that time outside the city of Copenhagen
, Denmark. Grøndahl initially began the company to produce
biscuit porcelain
figurines modeled on the
neoclassical
sculptures of
Bertel Thorvaldsen
. The company extended production to include elegant tableware and coffee sets.
Bing & Grøndahl's
Seagull
dinnerware, designed by Fanny Garde in 1895
The company's signature design,
Seagull
, was created in 1892 by designer Fanny Garde (1855-1925). The modest, classic design features flying seagulls against pale blue backgrounds, sea horse handles and shaded patterns of scales around the edges. Due to its popularity from the 1950s to the 1980s, the Seagull design was considered the "National Service of Denmark". During that period one out of every ten Danish households owned some of the dinnerware service.
In 1895, Bing & Grøndahl created the first in their series of Christmas plates. Designed with a traditional winter scene in cobalt blue and white, the plates have been released annually for more than 100 years. Noted as desirable by collectors, this series became responsible for a large portion of the company's production.
