This very lovely porcelain Christmas dinner plate features a scene of two gnomes on a sleigh and is designed by well-known elf painter Lars Carlson. It is a very nice quality shiny porcelain. The plate edges are gold-trimmed and the center picture is encircled with a pine cone motif on the rim.
This dinner plate is also a perfect size for an occassional plate to serve cookies, candies, nuts and other Yuletide treats! Or just as part of your Christmas display.
"The well-known elf painter Lars Carlson, born in 1921, has dedicated much of his life to elves; on Christmas cards, posters and wrapping paper. He has produced a phenomenal number of elves. Christmas, Easter, and congratulation cards, produced by Axel Eliasson’s publishing house in Stockholm over 50 years ago, are being reissued. He has also illustrated and written picture books for children. Lars Carlson is the creator of the God Jul wine service (1999) and the God Jul porcelain service (2000). He is inspired by his own childhood Christmas in Finnskogen and has painted Christmas motifs since the 1930s. The motifs set your imagination free, taking you into the world of Christmas elves. Lars Carlson’s vivid elf motifs are among the most beautiful in the world." (excerpt from http://www.rakuten.com/prod/god-jul-dinnerware-and-glassware-by-lars-carlsson/220680026.html)
Measures approximately 10 1/2 inches round.
