When I was browsing the aisles of Copenhagen’s Illums Bolighus — hands-down the most impressive store I’ve ever been in…EVER — I came across these impossibly pretty little fine bone china bowls. I was running low on Danish Krone at the time (it tends to happen in the land of the $6 coffee), and I couldn’t put my finger on where, but I was sure I’d seen them somewhere much closer to home…
Only about 3.5″ high, “Gold Dots” designed by great Dane Rikke Jakobsen, stood out from the rest of the amazing offerings at Illums as a super-sweet “small”.
Check out the pretty “Silver Abstract” design, too… Stunning!
So dainty, but such captivating detail in the metallic designs… You can understand my dilemma – to buy, or to wait until I got home to find out if it is indeed available in my home and native land?
Luckily, Rikke Jakobsen fine bone china is indeed available right here in the Big Smoke — just pop down to the 7,000 square-foot Shop at the Art Gallery of Ontario for a dose of these Danish delights!
