Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day Anniversary Plate 1984 Swan 23 cm

Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day Anniversary Plate 1984 is a beautiful and atmospheric blue and white plate in Danish porcelain, where the motif of a swan and cygnets captures the maternal care that precisely characterizes this beloved series. The classic expression makes this B&G Mother's Day Plate both a fine collector's item and a decorative porcelain plate with a calm, timeless story from nature.

This anniversary plate was designed by Henry Thelander and issued in 1984. The anniversary plates are something special in the series because they were created as commemorations of the history of the Mother's Day plates. The first anniversary plate was issued in 1979, 10 years after the first Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day Plate from 1969, and after that a new anniversary plate was issued every 5 years until 2009, when the last one was issued. Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day Plates were among the world's first series of Mother's Day plates and remain popular among both collectors and users.

What makes the anniversary plates especially attractive is also the size. Whereas the ordinary Mother's Day plates measure 15 cm, this large anniversary plate has a diameter of 23 cm. This provides many more possibilities for use in everyday life. It works beautifully as a serving plate, dinner plate, or as the bottom and largest plate in a tiered stand. At the same time, it is suitable as wall decoration, as it has hanging holes on the back.

The plate is made of robust porcelain of high quality with the classic underglaze decoration, which is dishwasher safe. The blue-white tones make it easy to combine with Bing & Grøndahl's and Royal Copenhagen's classic dinnerware as well as other blue-painted series such as Musselmalet, Empire and Blå Blomst. As vintage porcelain and recycled porcelain, it is also a sustainable choice for you who want beautiful craftsmanship with history and soul in the home.

At DPH - Danish Porcelain House, over many years we have built up an extensive stock of Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day Plates, and many year editions can often be found at attractive prices. A Bing & Grøndahl Mother's Day Anniversary Plate like this is therefore ideal both as a gift, as a collector's plate, and as a functional serving plate with Danish design tradition.
