Hackefors Christmas plate de luxe "JULEN" with gold decoration, 1976

Hackefors Christmas plate de luxe from 1976 is an atmospheric Swedish Christmas plate, where the blue-white winter motif is elevated by prominent gold decoration. At the top of the plate stands the Danish text "JULEN", and at the bottom the year 1976 is seen, which clearly places it in Hackefors' classic series of Christmas plates.

The motif shows a quiet snowy landscape with farm, fence and small fir trees in the foreground. Above the landscape, a large golden star shines in the dark blue sky, giving the scene an almost solemn and narrative expression. The combination of the deep cobalt blue decoration and the golden details gives this vintage a special character that stands out from the purely blue-white Hackefors plates.

This vintage is designed by Y. Norberg, Yngve Norberg, who is behind the Hackefors Christmas plates from 1969 to 1976. Like the other plates from the period, it is made in genuine cobalt, and it belongs to the releases that were produced in limited numbers. This makes the 1976 plate interesting for collectors of Hackefors Christmas plates, Swedish porcelain and older Christmas porcelain with history.

Hackefors has roots in Swedish porcelain tradition, and this Christmas plate shows precisely the fine union of craftsmanship, decorative porcelain and wintry storytelling that many are fond of. It is beautifully suited for wall hanging in December, but can also stand on display in a plate rack or be included as part of a collection with other Swedish Christmas plates.

Our specimen comes from a purchased remaining stock and is therefore unused, even though it is an older original from 1976. This makes it a good choice for you who appreciate vintage porcelain in fine, unused condition and would like to bring older quality craftsmanship forward into a contemporary home.
