Thomas Kinkade “Twilight Cottage” Lenox Plate 1997 Peaceful Retreats First Issue Bradford Exchange Limited Edition

Produced in 1997 for The Bradford Exchange, this limited-edition plate is crafted on fine hard-fire porcelain with a rich 24K gold rim, showcasing Kinkade’s masterful use of light and color.

Measuring approximately 8.5 inches in diameter, the plate captures a serene woodland scene with a glowing cottage, stone bridge, flowing stream, and vibrant twilight sky — a hallmark of Kinkade’s beloved style as the “Painter of Light.”

Each plate in this collection was fired up to 95 times to achieve its vivid detail and enduring finish, and it is individually numbered on the reverse (Plate No. 5861A). This piece is officially listed for trading on The Bradford Exchange and was released in a strictly limited edition.
