About the product
The motif of this 1990 Desirée annual cup from The Porcelain Factory Desiree, also known as Désirée Denmark, Svend Jensen of Denmark, Old Copenhagen Blue is Rosenborg Castle which is found in the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale Godfather's Picture Book. The 1990 Hans Christian Andersen Annual Cup had the same motif as the 1990 Svend Jensen Christmas plate. So the 1990 Desiree Annual Cup and the 1990 Desiree Christmas plate are actaully a beautiful coffee set with plate and cup. In the fairytale "Godfather's Picture Book" the writer Hans Christian Andersen mentions the birth of the Danish King Christian 4. In his time King Christian 4. built many admirable buildings. Among these buildings we have to mention Rosenborg Castle. The King wanted a "summerhouse" and the first stones to this house were placed in 1606. Since that the castle has been extended several times. King Christian 4. died in this castle. Today the castle is no longer used as a royal residence. Instead it houses the Crown Jewels and the Danish Crown Regalia. At the museum it is also possible to see the history about the Danish kings through 300 years. The 1990 Desiree Annual cup was designed by Svend Otto S. Désirée started the Annual cup series in 1982 and ended it in 2001. So 20 different sets were made to complete a perfect coffee set. All motifs of the Hans Christian Andersen annual cups from Désirée are inspired by Hans Christian Andersen´s Fairy Tales.
