Featuring a Christmas tree circled by dancing children, this vintage Jule Aften 1999 Bing & Grøndahl decorative dish is 7 inches round. Jule Aften translates from Danish to English as Christmas Eve. It is classic, in colors of deep blue hues with some creamy white. It is a versatile piece that can be used to serve cookies, candies, fruit or simply sit on a table or be displayed in a cabinet as an accessory.

The dish is marked as "Rundt om Juletreet" or in English, "Dancing on Chrismas Eve".

This company always made 4 tiny holes in the back top of each base for the express purpose of adding spring type display mounts if the owner chose to do that. This particular plate doesn't come with a mount, but you can easily add one if that is how you want to display it. For purposes of these photos I show it on a tiny black display stand simply so you can see how it would sit. That stand is not included.

Photos are included from all angles to show the Excellent Vintage Condition. There are no chips, crazing or cracks and all edges are smooth. Only the back has any visible signs of prior ownership, with some dark areas on the base where it sat for display.

Beautifully made, some of the areas have three dimensional features. For example, the outlines of the children, the ornaments on the tree, the top star, the fireplace, the chair and the window each have a 3D aspects.

Start your own holiday tradition by using this lovely serving dish all during December.

My research shows that a new Christmas plate is issued annually by Bing & Grøndahl, every year since 1895. You can add this to your collection or begin a new collection.

This item is sold from a vintage boutique in Bradenton, FL.
