Porcelain collector plate titled 'Sisters Are One Of Life's Most Precious Gifts' from M.I. Hummel collection by Danbury Mint

This decorative plate is part of the M.I. Hummel collector plate series produced by the Danbury Mint in the late 20th century. Based on the artwork of Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel (born Berta Hummel), these plates feature the characteristic whimsical children that made Hummel figurines famous worldwide. Hummel collector plates became particularly popular during the 1970s-1990s as part of the broader collectible plate market. These items appeal to collectors of Hummel memorabilia who appreciate the nostalgic, sentimental imagery and the connection to the longer tradition of Hummel figurines. The plates are valued for their charming depictions of childhood innocence and their limited production runs.
