Blue Monday is a delightful weekly feature sponsored by Sally at Smiling Sally.

The subject of this post is the latest collector’s plate added to the nativity collection. It is a porcelain plate made in Germany by Hutschenreuther.


The blue and white 9 ¾" diameter plate has a border of berries and leaves.

The illustration shows Mary with Baby Jesus, Joseph, Shepherds, an Angel and a Lamb

Blue Monday - Vintage German Nativity

For Blue Monday I’d like to share a vintage nativity made in Germany. Each piece has the word 'Germany' impressed on the side of the figure. This set is painted in delicate colors including a soft blue on some clothing worn by Mary and Baby Jesus.



The scene consists of Mary, Joseph and Baby Jesus, an ox, a donkey, three standing sheep and one resting sheep.

This lovely porcelain set is a graceful traditional rendition of Christ's nativity.
