A Porsgrund porcelain teapot, painted with a white rose, the handle with a bee, together with a similar twin handled vase and an ovoid form vase, printed marks (3) Other Notes: This collection of Danish and Norwegian Art Nouveau porcelain was formed by Millie Copeland, most probably received as royal gifts and from visits abroad. The fine quality of the porcelain, the art nouveau style and the factory back stamps all suggest the collection was formed in the period 1900 to 1920. Millie Copeland and her family served the Royal Household in a number of roles and lived on the Sandringham Estate. Millie was Dresser (and close friend) to Princess Victoria, the fourth child of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra. Princess Victoria never married but remained a companion to her parents, especially her mother with whom she lived at Sandringham until the death of the Dowager Queen in 1925. In 1907 Queen Alexandra purchased, with her sister, the Dowager Empress of Russia, a villa Hvidore, north of Copenhagen, which they both used as a summer residence. The Royal Collection contains a photograph taken around 1908 of the Royal Household staff, including Millie, at Hvidore. It seems highly probable that this collection of porcelain was gifted to Millie by Princess Victoria and other members of the Royal Family, on visits to Hvidore or other special occasions. In addition, Princess Victoria was very close to her younger sister, Princess Maude who married King Haaken of Norway. This is the most likely explanation and connection to the inclusion of the Norwegian Porsgrund porcelain in the collection. The collection comes by descent to Millie's niece, Alfreda and is now offered for sale for the first time.
