Desiree annual cup 1992 H.C. Andersen To be or not to be

Desiree annual cup 1992 is a beautiful blue and white porcelain cup with an atmospheric motif from the H.C. Andersen universe. The motif is stated as taken from To be or not to be, and on the cup Svend Otto S. has created a fine city scene with Rundetårn as a prominent and recognizable focal point. This gives the cup a classic, narrative expression, where Danish cultural history and poetic line meet in a design that still speaks to both collectors and porcelain lovers today.

The classic blue-white color scale is an important part of the charm of the Desiree H.C. Andersen series. The colors make this H.C. Andersen cup easy to place in the home, whether you prefer romantic porcelain, classic table setting or a simpler, Nordic style. As a fairy tale cup, coffee cup, tea cup or small mug, it adds personality to both the morning coffee, the afternoon tea and the display cabinet.

The series of Desiree annual cups was introduced in 1982, and at DPH - Danish Porcelain House we have most year models up to 2001. When Desiree closed, DPH - Danish Porcelain House bought the remaining stock of Desiree annual cups, and therefore we have a large selection of cups without saucer, which are sold at an attractive price. This model works perfectly without a saucer and is suitable for both coffee and tea.

It is a robust porcelain cup, which sits well in the hand, has a comfortable size and is pleasant to drink from. At the same time, it is dishwasher safe, which makes it ideal both as a collector's cup and for everyday use. Many also choose Desiree annual cups as a gift idea for collectors of H.C. Andersen porcelain, Christmas plates and other Danish collectibles.

The cup also matches beautifully with Desiree's Christmas plates and Mother's Day plates, both in colors and design language. It can also easily be combined with other porcelain services, so you get a blue and white cup with both history, utility value and decorative appeal.
