Bing & Grondahl Christmas Plates

Bing & Grondahl produced its first Christmas plate in 1895, and it is generally considered to be the first true "collector plate" ever issued.  The designs are molded into the plate in relief, and then hand-painted in cobalt blue.

I am in the process of putting up new pictures for each plate.  Please ask if you are looking for something that you don't see.  All of these plates (along with a HUGE number of other plates) are also pictured and described in the 2004 book on Royal Copenhagen and B&G Christmas and commemorative plates by Lars Christoffersen, which I sell for $35 (Cover Price $49.95). Click HERE for a full description of this book.

All plates listed here are FIRST QUALITY (no scratch through the trademark) and in EXCELLENT CONDITION (no chips, cracks, repairs, or other significant defects).

You can click on any plate title in BLUE to see a picture. Use the BACK button to return to this page.

The 2023 Bing & Grondahl Christmas Plates are NOW IN STOCK! Bing & Grondahl raised the Retail Price (MSRP) to $155 this year, and Bing & Grondahl’s marketing policies do not allowed me to advertise the 2023 for sale for less than $124. However, I can offer FREE SHIPPING within the United States for the 2023 plate to any address in the US, and you can ASK for a lower price, especially if you are buying more than one plate.
