Dansk Kobenstyle!

The Stylish Classic is Back: Dansk Kobenstyle! Home & Housewares 2012 | Apartment Therapy: The earliest pieces of Kobenstyle are enameled on the bottom, are made in Denmark, and have a "Four Ducks" logo. The later versions have a different bottom, logo, and are marked Made in France.
HOW TO CARE FOR VINTAGE DANSK ENAMEL PIECES (translated from Dansk's Danish website)
-In a pot large enough to submerge the piece of cookware you intend to clean, bring enough water to cover the piece to boil.
-Add 3-5 Tablespoons of Baking Soda to the water and allow the cookware to sit submerged in the boiling solution for 10 + minutes.
-Next, carefully remove from boiling water and wash in hot soapy water and scour with a nylon (not metal) scouring sponge.
-Rub with white vinegar to restore finish to the enamel after the item has cooled.
Granted boiling the larger pieces will be difficult for most people because you have to have a pot bigger that the piece you're cleaning.
Even Barkeeper's Friend can damage the enamel especially if there is already pre-existing damage or deep stains on the piece.
