Desiree annual cup 1998 with saucer - The Gardener and the Noble Family

Desiree annual cup 1998 with saucer is an atmospheric porcelain cup, where H.C. Andersen's fairy tale The Gardener and the Noble Family forms the setting for the motif of the year. The classic blue-white decoration creates a calm and wintry expression, and the scene with horse, carriage and landscape gives the cup a lovely story, which makes it more than just a coffee cup. Here you get a genuine fairy tale cup that appeals both to the collector and to those who love beautiful porcelain for everyday use.

The motif is drawn by Lis Torbøl and bears the special combination of storytelling, nostalgia and Danish design tradition that has made the Desiree H.C. Andersen series so popular. The series was introduced in 1982, and the motifs all draw inspiration from H.C. Andersen's beloved universe. This annual cup from 1998 is therefore also an obvious choice for those who collect Desiree annual cups, H.C. Andersen cups or porcelain with literary and historical charm.

The cup functions perfectly as both a coffee cup, tea cup and mug for everyday cosy moments. It has a comfortable size, fits well in the hand and is pleasant to drink from. At the same time, it is a robust porcelain cup that is dishwasher safe, so you get a collector's cup that is also practical in use. The blue white colour scale makes it easy to combine with other porcelain tableware and fits beautifully into both classic and modern homes.

Desiree annual cups are popular both as collectors' items and as cups for daily use. They also match beautifully with Desiree's Christmas plates and Mother's Day plates in both colours and design language. At DPH - Danish Porcelain House we have most year models up to 2001, and when Desiree closed, DPH - Danish Porcelain House bought the remaining stock of Desiree annual cups. Therefore, we also have a large selection of cups without saucer at an attractive price, but this version is delivered with saucer and appears as an extra fine set.

A Desiree annual cup from 1998 is also an obvious gift idea for collectors, fairy tale lovers or anyone who appreciates Danish porcelain with soul and history.
