Meissen Onion Pattern Plates & Bowls – Set of 6 German Blue & White Porcelain
£ 70.00
On offer is a beautiful group of six vintage German porcelain plates and bowls, all produced in the classic Meissen “Onion Pattern” (Zwiebelmuster) — one of Europe’s most iconic blue and white porcelain designs. This timeless pattern, first developed in the 18th century, has become synonymous with quality, tradition, and European porcelain mastery.
This set includes:
1 large plate (approx. 8.5 inches in diameter)
5 smaller bowls/plates (ranging down to approx. 5.25 inches in diameter)
Four of the six pieces are clearly marked with the Meissen crossed swords mark, indicating production by the prestigious Meissen manufactory — Europe’s oldest porcelain maker, founded in 1710. The remaining two pieces bear an alternate Meissen mark, consistent with variations used by the firm during different production periods.
All pieces are in very good vintage condition, with no chips, cracks, or repairs. The underglaze cobalt blue decoration remains crisp and vibrant, depicting traditional stylized motifs of pomegranates, bamboo, and peonies — reflecting Eastern influence as interpreted by Meissen artisans in the 18th century.
Whether displayed together or individually, this collection offers outstanding visual harmony and authenticity, suitable for both decorative display and refined dining.
