Royal Copenhagen Christmas Plate 1938 Østerlars Round Church Bornholm

Royal Copenhagen Christmas plate 1938 with the motif Østerlars Round Church on Bornholm is a classic collector's plate that combines Danish cultural history, atmospheric winter motif and the iconic blue-and-white expression that many associate with traditional Christmas plates. On the plate, the distinctive round church is seen in a peaceful winter landscape, where the snow settles around the buildings and creates a calm, solemn Christmas atmosphere with strong roots in Danish history and architecture.

This Christmas plate is designed by Herne Nielsen and issued by Royal Copenhagen, which makes it particularly interesting for collectors of Danish Christmas plates and classic porcelain. The motif from Bornholm gives the plate a special local historical character, and the clear year makes it easy to identify in a collection. For many, it is precisely the year and motif that are decisive when searching for a particular Royal Copenhagen Christmas plate, and the 1938 edition therefore has both decorative and collector's value.

Along the edge is the characteristic inscription 19 JUL 38, which is an important part of the plate's original expression and identity. The beautiful blue glaze and the detailed depiction of the church and surroundings make it ideal as wall decoration in the home, where it can hang alone or be part of a larger collection of Christmas plates. There are holes on the back for hanging, so it is easy to place on the wall.

Royal Copenhagen Christmas plates are not only created as decoration. They are produced so that they may be used for food items, and this plate is therefore also suitable for eating from, for example as a small lunch plate or cake plate at Christmas time. This makes it extra useful if you wish to combine collecting pleasure with practical use.

An older Christmas plate like this brings history, craftsmanship and personality into the home. Choosing vintage porcelain is at the same time a beautiful way to give quality design new life. It is a sustainable choice, where fine craftsmanship from previous generations can continue to create joy at the table or on the wall for many years to come.
