This product is an official import of Royal Copenhagen (Fiskers Japan Co., Ltd.) [This product sold and shipped by Amazon.co.jp is an authentic brand product] Blue Parmete was born in a stylish transformation of the blue fluted motif. The name is derived from a hand-painted motif of Blue Fluted and Shlo-Parmete, with a history of over 230 years. The ground pattern on the edges such as the plates has been inherited by Royal Copenhagen for many years. The three waves are part of the Royal Copenhagen logo designed by Empress Julian Marie (1729-96) and represent the three stresses of Denmark. Royal Copenhagen items can also be used as home decoration. Also makes a great gift.
