1987 Desiree Svend Jensen Christmas plate
The motif of this 1987 Desiree Christmas
plate from the Porcelain Factory Desiree,
also known as Désirée Denmark, Svend Jensen
of Denmark, Old Copenhagen Blue is found in
the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale
Thumbelina.
The fishes in the pond had just bitten off
the stalk of Thumbelina's water lily and
the leaf was floating in the stream down
the river.
Thumbelina is very happy that she got
away from the nasty toad and her son, to
whom she should have been married. The
white butterfly followed her down the
river and finally it ended at the edge of
the leaf. The motif of the Christmas plate
shows Thumbelina who has tied the butterfly
to the leaf. Then she flows faster.
The designer of this Christmas plate was
Svend Otto S., who has designed lots of
Desiree Christmas plates.
Désirée started the Christmas plate series
in 1970 and ended it in 2002.
All motifs of the Hans Christian Andersen
Christmas plates from Désirée were inspired
by Hans Christian Andersen´s Fairy Tales
