Bing & Grøndahl Christmas plate 2026 Den gamle by i Århus

Bing & Grøndahl Christmas plate 2026 with the motif Den gamle by i Århus captures a quiet and atmospheric Christmas Eve in the middle of historic surroundings. The old half-timbered houses rise around the snow-covered street, where an adult and a child are on their way home with this year's Christmas tree. It is a motif that exudes Danish Christmas, presence and traditions, and which connects the Christmas coziness with the special cultural heritage that Den Gamle By i Aarhus is known for preserving.

On the plate, the crooked facades, the small-paned windows and the snow-covered roofs can be seen, creating a calm and almost fairytale-like winter atmosphere. The little star in the sky and the soft tracks in the snow bring the motif to life and tell a story of anticipation, homecoming and that very special hour just before Christmas Eve unfolds. The visible text JULEAFTEN 2026 emphasizes the character of the year and makes this edition easy to identify for both collectors and those who want a memorable Christmas plate for the home.

The motif is designed by Dag Samsund, and the year continues the long tradition from Bing & Grøndahl, which began in 1895 with the world's first Christmas plate series. Since then, a new plate has been released every year, and each year has been produced in a limited number. After the last firing of the year, the mold was destroyed, which means that the individual year stands as a completed edition.

This Christmas plate is therefore both a decorative piece of porcelain and a piece of Danish design history. It can be hung up as part of the Christmas decorations, but it can also be used for the rest of the year, for example as a small cake plate or dessert plate. In December, it also adds the classic blue Christmas tint to the table, which many associate with nostalgic Danish Christmas.

For those of you who appreciate porcelain with history, collector's value and recognizable Danish storytelling, Den gamle by i Århus 2026 is a year that unites tradition, architecture and Christmas joy in one motif.
