At 7.9 inches, the MEISSEN New Cutout Blue Onion Starter & Dessert Plate is sized for dessert, salad, or a small first course. Its finely scalloped, petal-like rim follows the New Cutout form created around 1745 by Johann Joachim Kaendler. The Blue Onion pattern of peony and aster blossoms, bamboo, and stylized fruit is painted by hand in cobalt blue beneath the glaze at the MEISSEN Manufactory in Germany, so the color keeps its depth through years of use.
Introduced in 1739 and known in German as Zwiebelmuster, Blue Onion adapted motifs from Chinese porcelain and has become one of the most recognized patterns in fine German porcelain. Layer it over the dinner plate for a formal course, or use it on its own for dessert and afternoon tea.
