The Timelessness of Danish Christmas Plates



Ever since the tradition of collecting and displaying Christmas plates began more than a hundred years ago, Danish Christmas plates have become fixtures in many households. As collectors of these charming pieces will attest, the beauty of Danish Christmas plates is unique. Bright colors, intricate designs, and beautiful subjects combine to make each plate a thing of beauty that will last for generations.



Danish Christmas plates have evolved from their humble beginnings as simple ceramic plates to cherished works of art. Today, these plates are often made of fine porcelain or other materials. Collectors can find an array of designs, colors, and styles, ranging from traditional Victorian to modern abstracts. Whether you’re a collector or just appreciate the beauty of these plates, there’s something special about Danish Christmas plates that make them endlessly appealing.



A Brief History of Danish Christmas Plates



The tradition of Danish Christmas plates started in 1908 with the first plate made by Bing & Grøndahl. It was a simple, hand-painted plate featuring a church in the moonlight. This design has become one of the most popular of all Danish Christmas plates and has been reproduced many times over the years. From this starting point, Bing & Grøndahl has released a new design every year since, making it the oldest continuous series of Christmas plates still in production.



In addition to the Bing & Grøndahl series, there are a number of other plate collections that feature Danish Christmas designs. Royal Copenhagen, for example, has been producing Christmas plates since 1935. Their designs often feature animals, birds, and fairies in intricate and colorful scenes. And Cooprizia, which started production in 1992, offers a range of modern designs, including some abstract works. Each of these collections brings something unique to the tradition of Danish Christmas plates.



Collecting Danish Christmas Plates



As the popularity of Danish Christmas plates continues to grow, so too does the hobby of collecting them. Many people collect plates from different series, or specialize in a particular style or era. Others collect antique plates, as well as limited-edition plates produced in recent years. Some even build entire displays around their collections, combining the plates with other holiday decorations.



No matter why you choose to collect them, Danish Christmas plates are sure to bring you joy for many years to come. From their timeless designs to their variety of styles, these plates offer a glimpse into a world of beauty and tradition. For collectors and admirers alike, Danish Christmas plates are sure to provide endless delight.
