Avon 1990 Christmas Plate - Bringing Christmas Home

This is a vintage 1990 Avon Christmas collector plate titled 'Bringing Christmas Home'. The plate is made of white porcelain with a high-gloss glaze and features a 22k gold-trimmed rim. The central artwork depicts a Victorian-era family scene set in a snowy town square. A man in a top hat and a woman in a red fur-trimmed coat are gathering greenery with two young children and a small dog. The scene is rich in festive colors, dominated by reds, greens, and soft snowy blues, rendered in a traditional illustrative style. The text 'Christmas 1990' is printed at the bottom in a blue serif font. The plate measures approximately 8 inches in diameter. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-produced holiday collectibles from the late 20th century, utilizing high-quality decals and metallic gilding. Visible condition appears excellent with no noticeable chips, cracks, or crazing, and the gold rim shows minimal wear. The back of the plate (not shown but consistent with this series) typically features the 'Source of Fine Collectibles' hallmark and descriptive text regarding the edition. These plates were popular gift items in the early 1990s and represent the nostalgic holiday aesthetic of that period.
