Bing & Grondahl Commemorative Plates

B&G produced its first true commemorative plate in 1895 in honor of the Women's Exhibition held in Copenhagen that year.  This was the same year that B&G issued its first Christmas plate, generally considered to be the first true "collector plate" in the world.  Additional commemorative plates were issued in the following years, although not nearly as many as were issued by Royal Copenhagen, and usually in smaller editions than their Royal Copenhagen counterparts.  To make it easier to identify the plates, I have adopted the same numbering system used by Lar Christoffersen in his 2004 book on B&G and Royal Copenhagen Christmas and Commemorative plates (for sale on my website with the other books).

I am interested in purchasing (or at least getting pictures of) any plate in this series not shown on this page.
