Hackefors Christmas Plate / Christmas Plate "Julen" church and bird 1998

Hackefors Christmas plate from 1998 is an atmospheric blue-and-white Christmas plate with the text "Julen" on the front. The motif shows a wintry scene with a church in the background, low houses in the landscape and a dark bird in the foreground, surrounded by branches and snow-covered ground. This gives the plate a calm and Nordic expression, where nature, winter light and Christmas peace merge into one motif.

It is precisely this simple story that makes this Hackefors Christmas plate so inviting. The bird in the foreground creates life in the picture, while the church and village in the background bring to mind December days when the landscape lies still and Christmas is approaching. On the plate stands the Swedish word "Julen", which emphasizes its origin and gives it a fine, authentic character.

The year's motif is designed by Ragnar Carlsson, who is behind the Hackefors Christmas plates in this period. The decoration is made in genuine cobalt, which also characterizes the classic Swedish Christmas plates from Hackefors. The 1998 edition at the same time belongs to the plates that were issued in a limited number, which makes it interesting for collectors of Hackefors Christmas plates, Swedish porcelain and blue-and-white Christmas plates.

As this plate is made in blue and white without gold decoration, it is not only decorative, but also practical. With a diameter of 20 cm it can be used as a Christmas plate or cake plate, and it is dishwasher safe. This makes it ideal for those who would like to use your Christmas plates actively in the table setting instead of only hanging them on the wall. Several editions together provide a cosy and personal Christmas table setting.

The plate comes from DPH - Danish Porcelain House's acquired residual stock and is therefore unused, even though it was manufactured many years ago. It is a good way to choose older quality porcelain with history and at the same time enjoy Swedish craftsmanship that still works beautifully in a modern home.
