With Christmas just around the corner, Rosenthal and Hutschenreuther are catering for the festive season, unveiling elegant gift ideas and Christmas decorations for the perfect holiday table.
Collectors rejoice: the new Hutschenreuther “Christmas Fun” edition
This year’s collectible edition features delightful designs by Czech illustrator Renáta Fucíková, centred around the theme “Christmas Fun.” The cheerful motifs take us back to childhood, depicting families and children playing board and card games, building snowmen and igloos. To complement the seasonal mood, Hutschenreuther introduces porcelain ornaments adorned with the new designs – available in the shapes of a bell, bauble, pine cone and stocking. These intricately detailed ornaments are released in limited editions. The collection also includes limited-edition pieces such as a porcelain Christmas light, cappuccino and espresso cups, a breakfast plate, as well as additional porcelain bells and ornaments in various shapes and miniature formats.
Christmas Atelier Hutschenreuther brings “Alle Jahre wieder” to life on porcelain
In 2016, the Hutschenreuther Christmas Atelier launched its popular collectible series “Christmas Carols.” This year, the cherished German carol “Alle Jahre wieder” (Every Year Again) is introduced as a new motif on porcelain. The delicate design features not only the musical notes of the song, but also festive elements such as mistletoe, the Star of Bethlehem, gifts, ribbons, and pinecones – all in a joyful palette of green, blue, yellow, and red – creating a warm and festive atmosphere.
Festive elegance graces the table with TAC Glitch by Rosenthal
In this design, featuring finely drawn gold and green decorative elements, nothing is quite as it seems. The patterns appear slightly shifted and off centre – deliberately so. And yet, the retro-inspired aesthetic speaks a language of timeless elegance and refined beauty. The collection playfully reinterprets traditional dinnerware decoration: lines, stripes, borders, and Art Deco details seem to tumble playfully over the edge of the plate. This extraordinary décor once again spotlights Rosenthal’s Bauhaus classic – the TAC service by Walter Gropius – and brings a sense of festive sophistication to every Christmas table.
The Hutschenreuther Christmas ball celebrates its 40th anniversary
Happy Birthday, Hutschenreuther Christmas Ball! This beloved collector’s item marks its 40th anniversary this year. To celebrate the occasion, the renowned heritage brand presents a limited-edition anniversary set – just 1,500 sets available worldwide. Each set includes twelve miniature Christmas balls showcasing the most beautiful designs from the past twelve years, bringing nostalgic charm to the Christmas tree. Four of the motifs – “Christmas Mail,” “Children’s Carol Singing,” “Christmas Dinner,” and “Tea Time” – were designed by artist Ole Winther and imaginatively depict festive stories from the Christmas season. Eight further designs by Czech illustrator Renáta Fucíková – including “Christmas Market,” “Christmas Bakery,” “Christmas Sparkle,” and “Christmas Fun” – feature lovingly hand-painted porcelain scenes filled with festive warmth. The colourful Christmas balls, each adorned with a red ribbon, are beautifully presented in a book-shaped collector’s box – a perfect gift for the holiday season.
Rosenthal’s celestial collection brings joy to the art of giving
Collectors and gift recipients alike cherish Rosenthal’s angels, crafted from the finest biscuit porcelain – not only during the festive season, but throughout the year. This year, the heavenly host welcomes three enchanting new additions: one angel bearing a gift, one with a coffee cup, and one in peaceful meditation. These delicate figurines, available in three sizes (6, 10 and 14 cm), make cherished gifts for a variety of occasions – far beyond the Christmas season.
With ‘Christmas Love’, Hutschenreuther celebrates the heartfelt joy of the festive season
Hutschenreuther collections have always been shaped by a deep love for Christmas. This year again, the porcelain manufacturer celebrates the festive season with lovingly crafted designs and traditional motifs. Whether for enjoying coffee, a festive dinner, or as a gift, Christmas Love presents a series that captures the Christmas spirit in a design both classic and modern. The patterns, primarily in festive red and beige, feature nostalgic motifs such as gingerbread men, gingerbread houses, nutcrackers, and presents.
Let’s Celebrate! Reds for the festive season at Rosenthal
For some, the biggest celebration of the year is Christmas; for others, it’s Chanukkah, New Year’s Eve, Eid al-Adha, or Chinese New Year. Everyone brings their own idea of festivity – whether quiet, exuberant, or stylishly elegant. Yet all these celebrations share one thing: the joy of giving. For those who want to celebrate the art of giving, Rosenthal has launched a new gift idea: the popular Skum design vase in midi size (14 cm) and in an elegant ruby red. Red is not only the classic colour of Christmas; it also symbolizes love, joy, happiness, wealth, and festivity across many cultures and contexts. Glazed inside and matt outside, this design vase makes an elegant gift for loved ones.
