Some information on the history of this blue onion pattern. Itis one of the most famous and iconic blue patterns in the world. The blue onion pattern, which found its home on MEISSEN porcelain, has its roots not in Europe, but in China. In the 17th century, at a time when long-distance trade was flourishing, Chinese porcelain, which was considered a real treasure at the time, reached European traders for the first time. These valuable pieces, often decorated with blue designs on white porcelain, aroused enthusiasm in Europe, which stimulated trade and ultimately led to the desire to produce their own porcelain. European porcelain was born in 1710 with the founding of the MEISSEN Porcelain Manufactory by Augustus the Strong, Elector of Saxony. The manufactory was the first in Europe to unlock the secret of porcelain production. This pattern was then picked up Carl Teichert of Meissen oven and porcelain. Founded in 1863 as a tile company, and then in 1882 he decided to join the tableware industry and produced this beautiful printed blue onion pattern.
