UNIQUE UNICUM / THE ONLY SET IN THE WORLD. A historic opportunity to acquire two monumental Royal Copenhagen stoneware water buffaloes of museum grade, designed by Knud Kyhn in August 1927.

No collector or museum owns this specific pair. 🔍 Details & Glaze. The 1920s coal-fired kilns gave the glazing an unpredictable vitality:     •    The Brown Bull (H: 20 / L: 31 cm): Coated in deep, raw Sung glaze, featuring a beautiful interplay between dark espresso and earth-toned undertones.     •    The Green Bull (H: 21 / L: 32 cm): Absolute unicum in mythical Olivine glaze. Volatile kiln reactions created a unique, crystallized pattern. 📜 The Artist & Authenticity. Knud Kyhn (1880-1969) is Denmark's most important ceramic sculptor.     •    Model No.: 20144 (August 1927, Royal Copenhagen, 1st run).     •    Markings: Three waves, "Aug 1927", and the KK monogram are hand-incised directly into the wet clay prior to firing—physical proof of origin, free of later factory stamps. Condition: Impressive antique condition. Fully intact with no chips, cracks, or restorations. Kiln-born pinholes are the guarantee of raw originality.
