Royal Copenhagen Christmas plate 1908 with the motif Mary with the child is an iconic collector's item and an important part of Danish porcelain history. As the first Christmas plate from Royal Copenhagen, this very edition holds a very special place among collectors, and the motif radiates a quiet, classic Christmas peace with the loving depiction of mother and child surrounded by the light of the halo. The year 1908 stands clearly on the front and is a central part of the plate's expression and identity.

The plate is designed by Christian Thomsen, and the simple blue-white relief emphasizes the calm and dignity that have made Royal Copenhagen Christmas plates sought after through generations. The motif is both religious, historical and decorative, and this makes this Christmas plate suitable as a prominent part of a collection or as atmospheric wall decoration in December and the rest of the year.
