Desiree annual cup 1982 Twelve by the Mail Coach with saucer

Desiree annual cup 1982 with motif from H.C. Andersen's fairy tale Twelve by the Mail Coach is an atmospheric porcelain cup that brings both storytelling, nostalgia and classic Danish design to the table. The blue-and-white motif creates a calm and timeless expression, and the scene with the mail coach by the town gate gives the cup a fairy-tale character that makes it much more than just a coffee cup or tea cup.

The artist behind this year's motif is Svend Otto S., who with his confident line has created a decorative fairy-tale cup with lots of atmosphere. The motif is the same as on Desiree's Christmas plate from 1982, and therefore this H.C. Andersen cup is an obvious choice for collectors who wish to collect the year's service or create a beautiful set with both cup and plate.

Desiree introduced the series of annual cups in 1982, and it quickly became popular among both collectors and those who wanted a beautiful porcelain cup for everyday use. At DPH - Danish Porcelain House we have most of the annual editions up to 2001, and the series is still sought after as a collector's cup, H.C. Andersen mug and blue white cup with Danish cultural history in the motif. DPH - Danish Porcelain House bought the remaining stock of Desiree annual cups when Desiree closed, and therefore we have a large selection of these beloved cups.

This annual cup is delivered with saucer and works perfectly for both coffee and tea. The comfortable size means that the cup fits well in the hand and is pleasant to drink from, while the porcelain feels robust and practical in everyday life. At the same time, it is a porcelain cup that is dishwasher safe, which makes it easy to use again and again.

The classic blue-and-white colour scale fits beautifully into many homes and can easily be combined with other porcelain services. At the same time, it matches Desiree's Christmas plates and Mother's Day plates beautifully in both colours and design language. As a gift idea, it is an obvious choice for the collector, the fairy-tale lover or the person who appreciates Danish design with history.
