Royal Copenhagen 2008 Year Plate Centenary Overglaze Limited 199 Worldwide:
$2899.00

DescriptionCondition : Unused, long-stored - the plate itself is unused first quality, but the box and papers show age-related soiling and deteriorationRoyal Copenhagen year plate produced in 2008 to mark the centenary of the Royal Copenhagen year plate - and limited to 199 pieces worldwide.Why this is not an ordinary year plate: Royal Copenhagen has issued a Christmas year plate every year since 1908, and those turn up constantly. This is not one of them. For the hundredth anniversary the factory made a separate commemorative plate decorated in the overglaze technique used on Flora Danica rather than the familiar underglaze blue - effectively a Flora Danica version of the year plate - and released only 199 of them for the entire world. The seller notes that this is a smaller edition than the original 1908 plate itself.Specification: diameter 18.0 cm, made in Denmark, graded first quality (A/1).Condition, honestly: the plate is unused, but it has been stored for a long time and is not being sold as new. The box and accompanying papers are complete but show age-related soiling and deterioration. Nine photographs are provided covering the plate, the box and the certificate - please treat them as the description.On the price: there is no comparable listed on for us to price against - ordinary year plates sell for a fraction of this, but they are a different object entirely. We have priced it against what a 199-piece overglaze commemorative costs to source in Japan.
