About Royal Copenhagen Christmas Plates:
Founded in 1775, Royal Copenhagen is one of the oldest and most prestigious porcelain manufacturers in Europe. Since 1908, the company has released a unique Christmas plate every year. Each design is produced for one year only, and once the run is complete, the mold is destroyed—making each edition highly collectible.

These annual plates depict tranquil winter scenes, holiday traditions, and Nordic landscapes, and are celebrated for their fine craftsmanship and timeless design. The 1973 plate, for example, illustrates a nostalgic steam train journey titled “Going Home for Christmas,” designed by artist Kai Lange.
