Gustavsberg Christmas Plate / Christmas Dinner Plate with dancing around the Christmas tree, 1979

Gustavsberg Christmas Plate / Christmas Dinner Plate from 1979 exudes classic Nordic Christmas atmosphere. The blue-and-white motif shows a lively Christmas scene with people gathered around a decorated Christmas tree, where they are dancing in a circle while others look on. It is an atmospheric depiction of the community, traditions and warmth of Christmas, and precisely for that reason this plate is both a beautiful collector's item and a practical Christmas dinner plate for the cozy meals of the season.

As a Gustavsberg Christmas Plate, it has the special charm that characterizes the popular Swedish Christmas releases, and as a Gustavsberg Christmas Dinner Plate it can at the same time be used at the table. It is ideal as a lunch plate for the Christmas lunch, for serving a starter or dessert in December, or as a decorative part of the table setting when you want to create a nostalgic and personal Christmas atmosphere.

This edition is a special edition and stands out by being produced as a commissioned work in 2.500 copies. After production, the original printing plates were destroyed, which underlines the plate's special character and makes it extra interesting for collectors of Gustavsberg Christmas plates. The motif is based on a sketch from 1875 by J. A. Malmström, which has been reworked by Sven Jonson, and this gives the plate both artistic depth and historical anchoring.

Older porcelain such as this Gustavsberg Christmas Dinner Plate has a special ability to bring history and soul into the home. It is a fine example of quality design that can still be used and appreciated today. Choosing vintage and older porcelain is at the same time a beautiful way to give durable craftsmanship new life and create a more personal and sustainable home interior.

The plate is also an ideal gift idea for collectors of Swedish Christmas plates, for the design enthusiast, or for anyone who loves traditional Christmas decorations with function. It can be displayed in December as decoration or used as part of an atmospheric Christmas table setting.
