1988 Desiree Svend Jensen Christmas cup with saucer
The motif of this 1988 Desirée annual cup
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 The Bell
Deep.
The 1988 Hans Christian Andersen Annual Cup
had the same motif as the 1988 Svend Jensen
Christmas plate. So the 1988 Desiree Annual
Cup and the 1988 Desiree Christmas plate
are actaully a beautiful coffee set with
plate and cup.
In the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale
named "The Bell Deep", the old church bell
from Saint Albani Church in Odense is lying
at the deepest place in the small river
through Odense. The bell is ringing from its
deep and is telling the citizens about its
experiences in the church tower. Among other
things the bell tells about the murder
of the Danish King Knud. Later he was named
Canute the Holy and gave the name to the
present Saint Canute's Cathedral or Odense
Cathedral.
The artist behind this Annual cup is Svend
Otto S.
Désirée started the Annual cup series in
1982 and ended it in 2001. So 20 different
sets were made to complete a perfect coffee
set.
All motifs of the Hans Christian Andersen
annual cups from Désirée are inspired
by Hans Christian Andersen´s Fairy Tales.
