John Olsen (May 25, 1938 - 2019) was a Danish artist who trained first af the Royal Copenhagen Porcelain factory and then at the Academy. He worked with the natural world - first with bronze figurines of birds, and later with cabinets juxtaposing found natural objects and rarities - a take on the old idea of a cabinet of curiosities.

He also did works on paper, for instance a series of drawings made in his sauna, where the heat and humidity put its stamp on the works - as did the artist's sweat!

The source of inspiration for this remarkable object was models of polar bears made by the Royal Copenhagen Manufactory. The icy effect was created using experimental glaze techniques."

PS: there is a similar, slightly larger piece in the Khalili Collections:

Knud Kyhn (March 17, 1880 - 1969) was a Danish animal and landscape painter and porcelain/ceramics sculptor, who created many animal figurines for the three major, Danish porcelain factories: Royal Copenhagen, Bing & Grøndahl, and Kähler.

He trained at the Royal Academy and Zahrtmann's school, and traveled widely to observe animals and birds, esp. in Northern Europe. His style of painting aligns with that of Fynboerne, esp. Johannes Larsen.

I know this post is from 2017 but I came across it and couldn't not share what my little rabbithole search found.

Erik Nielsen (1857-1947), was a danish sculptor and modeller. He was a designer for the Royal Danish Porcelain Manufactory from 1887 to 1926 and mainly produced animal sculptures. Source

This is only one of the many sculptures he's made. This is a website with more of them but here's also some of my favorites:

"Mouse on sugar", Royal Copenhagen, 1923

"Yawning Cat", Royal Copenhagen, 1905
