Desiree annual cup 1994 H.C. Andersen A String of Pearls

Desiree annual cup 1994 brings an atmospheric glimpse of H.C. Andersen's universe into everyday life. The motif is taken from the fairy tale A String of Pearls and shows Roskilde Cathedral in the characteristic blue-white decoration that has made the series so beloved among collectors and porcelain enthusiasts. It is a cup with both narrative and atmosphere - a small piece of Danish cultural history that invites calm, reflection, and a good cup of coffee or tea.

The motif was created by Svend Otto S., whose delicate line gives this H.C. Andersen cup a vivid and fairy-tale-like expression. The classic color scale in blue and white suits the motif beautifully and makes the cup easy to combine with other porcelain. At the same time, it matches particularly well with Desiree's Christmas plates and Mother's Day plates, where form language and colors recur across the series.

Desiree introduced the series of annual cups in 1982, and at DPH - Danish Porcelain House you will find most years 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 saucers, which are sold at an attractive price. This annual cup works perfectly without a saucer and is suitable both as a coffee cup, tea cup, and mug for everyday use.

That is precisely part of the charm of a Desiree annual cup: It is popular as a collector's cup, but also created to be used. The cup has a comfortable size, sits well in the hand, and is pleasant to drink from. As a robust porcelain cup, it is dishwasher safe and therefore fits well into a busy everyday life, where one likes to surround oneself with beautiful things without compromising on functionality.

A Desiree annual cup from 1994 is also an obvious gift idea for the collector, for the H.C. Andersen enthusiast, or for the one who appreciates classic Danish design. The blue white cup adds personality to the table setting and can easily be included in both classic and modern homes.
