Knud Basse
Knud Basse (1916-1991)
Knud Basse was a Dansish Ceramicist known for his very popular small figures of animals with finely processed matte or “haresfur” glazes.
He was associated with several makers including Michael Andersen & Sons, but his best work came from his workshop in Teglkas-Ronne (on the island of Bornholm Denmark) .
Knud also produced pieces for Danish pottery Palshus.
I have had some of the delightful figurines by Knud in the first few images below: 
Recently I discovered a delightful small form , out of Knud Basse’s own studio on Bornholm, which has a thorn like design and a wonderfully coloured glaze:
The “thorned” design above is similar to a very striking series of larger forms with thorns, which Knud created for Michael Andersen & Sons. These are highly valued, prized pieces to collectors.
Figurines by Knud Basse seem to pop up reasonably frequently. I found this delightful group on Lauritz.com website Denmark.
Lehmann Pottery Denmark
Lehmann Pottery was located on the island of Langeland in Denmark, but not much else than that has been documented about their history.
It's most active period was in the 1960s and 1970s, but ran until 2016 when it closed under different operators.
