About the product

The motif of this 1971 Desiree Christmas plate from the Porcelain Factory Desiree, also known as Désirée Denmark, Svend Jensen of Denmark, Old Copenhagen Blue is coming from the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale The Little Match Girl. The 1971 Desiree Christmas plate shows The Little Match Girl, who seeks cover from the cold between to house corners. She lights a match to get some heat and in the glimmer she sees all the joy and happiness of Christmas. Among other things she sees a beautiful Christmas Tree with thousands of candles. When the match has burnt she has to light a new one. The Christmas plate was designed by Mads Stage. Désirée started the Christmas plate series in 1970 and ended it in 2002. All motifs of the Hans Christian Andersen Christmas plates from Désirée are inspired by Hans Christian Andersen´s Fairy Tales.
