About the item

The motif of this 1989 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 Old House. Hans Christian Andersen writes so lifelike about The Old House, which is standing side by side with new beautiful houses. The old house seems out of place but it has a special charm. The wide step, the carved window frames and the bay which takes some of the view from the other houses. One day the small boy from the neighbour opposite The Old House visist the old man who is living in The Old House. The old man tells stories about every single furniture in his house. Once again the artist behind many Desiree Christmas plates, Svend Otto S., has designed an expressive Christmas plate. 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
