Desiree H.C. Andersen Christmas plate 1982 Tolv med Posten

Desiree H.C. Andersen Christmas plate 1982 with motif from the fairy tale Tolv med Posten combines Danish storytelling tradition, Christmas coziness and classic blue-and-white porcelain art. On the plate, the mail coach is seen on its way through the city gate in an atmospheric winter motif, where horses, coachman and half-timbered houses form a lively scene with a distinct fairy-tale atmosphere. The year 1982 appears on the front and makes this Christmas plate easy to identify for both collectors and those seeking a special Christmas plate with history.

The motif is created by Svend Otto S., who with his confident line gives H.C. Andersen's universe warmth, movement and poetry. Tolv med Posten is about the year's twelve months, who arrive as guests on New Year's night, and it is precisely the story of the passage of time and the changing of the year that makes this H.C. Andersen plate an obvious choice as Christmas decoration, collector's item or personal gift idea.

The plate is produced by Porcelænsfabrikken Désirée, a large and well-recognized Danish porcelain factory. It is made in the good, robust quality that characterizes the factory's Christmas plates, and it can therefore not only be hung up as wall decoration, but also used for food. Many use these Désirée plates as dinner plates or cake plates, and they are dishwasher safe. On the back there are holes for hanging, so it can easily find a place on the wall in the kitchen, dining room or in a collection of Danish Christmas plates.

Although this Christmas plate was produced many years ago, it comes from the residual stock from Porcelænsfabrikken Désirée, which we acquired in 2006. Therefore, virtually all our H.C. Andersen plates from the series are still unused. This makes it extra attractive for collectors, but also for you who would like to set the table with beautiful porcelain with history and at the same time choose a quality product that is made to last.

From 1982 onwards, a matching cup was also produced, so this plate can be combined with a cup from the same series if you want a complete fairy-tale-themed coffee table.
