Vintage Christmas Teddy Bear Collector's Plate

This is a circular porcelain or fine china collector's plate featuring a festive holiday motif. The central illustration depicts a charming group of eight multi-colored teddy bears packed into a black sleigh with wire runners, adorned with a Christmas wreath and a pine branch. Beneath the illustration is the sentimental inscription in red serif font: 'Christmas is a sharing time— A happy, giving, caring time!'. The plate face is white and bordered by a classic red and white checkered inner ring, finished with a thin gold-colored rim along the outer edge. This item appears to be from a holiday series produced between the late 1980s and the early 1990s, common for brands like Reco, Bradford Exchange, or Hallmark. The construction shows high-quality glazing over decal application. Condition is fair to good, with visible surface dirt and a small reddish stain on the left side of the white field. No major cracks are visible, though the gold trim may show minor shelf wear. The craftsmanship reflects typical late-20th-century mass-produced collectible decor intended for display rather than culinary use.
