About the item

The motif of this 1983 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 The Story of the Year. In Hans Christian Andersen's fairytale named "The Story of the Year" he writes about some small sparrows. They are sitting in the cold winter and yearn for the springtime. The sparrows are thinking of the lovely warm weather and the leaves on the trees. Finally the spring is there and after that the summer. But it is getting colder and then it is winter again with all the snow and frost, Winter makes it more difficult for the sparrows when they are going to find some food. The 1983 Desiree Christmas plate was designed by Svend Otto S. 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
