Blue Collectibles

The Blue Collectibles is a tradition loved by many. Throughout the years, Royal Copenhagen collectibles have told tales about war and peace, love and unforgettable moments. Each plate tells a story, and from the moment you hold it in your hand, it becomes part of your story too.

ROYAL COPENHAGEN ANNUAL PLATE 2026

This year’s Royal Copenhagen Christmas Plate features the Marble Bridge in Copenhagen, admired by a cat and a dog. The hand-painted blue decoration celebrates Danish architecture and Christmas traditions, resulting in a timeless Collectionector’s item that brings history and warmth to the holiday season.

Royal Copenhagen's Annual Chinese Zodiac Figurine 2026

Royal Copenhagen's Annual Chinese Zodiac Figurines are inspired by the Chinese calendar, which assigns an animal and its traits to each year in a repeating 12-year cycle. In 2026, the Annual Chinese Zodiac Figurine is a horse, symbolising energy, independence, and a free spirit.

BING & GRØNDAHL ANNUAL PLATE 2026

This year’s Bing & Grøndahl Christmas Plate features Den Gamle By in Aarhus, an open sky museum that shows elements of Danish history and ways of life as far back as 1500. The detailed design brings Danish history to life with snow-covered buildings and cobblestone streets, where a parent and child carry a Christmas tree home.

BLUE COLLECTIBLES PLAQUETTE 2026

The joy of anticipation is beautifully illustrated on the Blue Collectibles Christmas Plaquette 2026, where a little girl lights the fourth Advent candle, which stands on a beautifully set table with a lit Christmas tree in the background.

In 1895, Hallin left the Royal Porcelain Factory and took his idea to Bing & Grøndahl, where owner Harald Bing conceived the idea of using the relief technique to create a collector's plate for an event that could be repeated year after year.

Thirteen years later, Royal Copenhagen followed suit and released their own plate using Hallin's relief technique. Although the two porcelain factories were merged in 1987, the two series still exist side by side to the benefit and delight of collectors worldwide.

Royal Copenhagen ANNUAL FIGURINE 2026

BLUE COLLECTIBLES ANNUAL FIGURINE 2026

The annual Blue Collectibles Figurine is inspired by the motif on the Royal Copenhagen Christmas Plate, and this year it features an elegant cat with an attentive gaze. The Blue Collection Figurine is designed by Allan Therkelsen, the artist behind the illustration of the Christmas Plate.
