Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day plate 1976 Swan with cygnets

Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day plate 1976 with the motif Swan with cygnets is a classic blue-and-white porcelain plate that combines Danish design, maternal symbolism and timeless collector's joy. The fine motif, created by Henry Thelander, captures the swan surrounded by its cygnets in a calm and warm expression, which makes this B&G Mother's Day plate both an atmospheric decoration and a useful plate in everyday life.

The blue underglaze decoration gives the plate the characteristic expression that has made Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day plates loved through generations. The series was introduced in 1969 and is still produced, and it is considered among the world's first series of Mother's Day plates. Precisely for this reason, the annual editions are popular with both collectors and those who wish to give a personal gift with history and meaning.

This porcelain plate is made of robust porcelain of high quality and has a slightly deep shape, which makes it suitable for more than just hanging. With its diameter of 15 cm, it can be used as a small serving plate for breakfast, cake, dessert, starters and other smaller servings. At the same time, it has hanging holes on the back, so it also functions beautifully as wall decoration alone or together with several annual editions in a personal collection.

The classic blue-and-white shades make it easy to combine with Bing & Grøndahl's and Royal Copenhagen's traditional services as well as other blue-painted porcelain series. It goes particularly beautifully with Musselmalet, Empire and Blå Blomst, but also adds a touch of Danish porcelain with soul to modern table settings.

As vintage porcelain, this Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day plate is also a sustainable choice. Choosing recycled porcelain is a beautiful way to preserve quality products and let them gain new life in a modern home. At DPH - Danish Porcelain House, we have over many years built up an extensive stock of Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day plates, and many annual editions can be purchased at attractive prices.
