The MEISSEN New Cutout Blue Onion Teapot pours several cups and completes a full tea service. Its finely scalloped, petal-like rim follows the New Cutout form created around 1745 by Johann Joachim Kaendler. Blue Onion motifs of blossoms, tendrils, and stylized pomegranates are painted by hand in cobalt blue beneath the glaze at the MEISSEN Manufactory in Germany.
The so-called onions of Zwiebelmuster, as Blue Onion is known in German, are stylized pomegranates and peaches, emblems of fertility and long life in Chinese art. Set it at the center of an afternoon tea with the matching cups, cream jug, and sugar bowl.
