Temperatures are climbing, the sun is beckoning with its warm rays - summer is finally here! It's the perfect time to get out of the house and enjoy life outdoors. Whether it's an exuberant picnic on the beach, a hike through the wooded park or a cozy barbecue in your own garden or on the balcony, these activities provide the ideal opportunity to socialize with family, friends or other important people in our lives. The smell of freshly grilled food in the air, the laughter of loved ones and enjoying the summer temperatures together - moments like these are memorable and strengthen our bond with each other.
The modern barbecue has its roots in a centuries-old tradition that originated in the Caribbean or possibly in Florida. The classic method of preparation there involves digging a hole in the ground, followed by a wood fire. After the fire has burned down to embers, the meat - often a whole animal - is carefully placed on the still-warm ashes and covered with earth so that it slowly cooks to its perfect tenderness. Although this method still has its fans today, we are glad that we now have many more advanced and simpler methods of preparing food for a tasty barbecue. And the variety of dishes is also greater than ever: whether juicy ribs, delicately spiced grilled cheese, perfectly prepared steaks, colorful grilled vegetables or delicious side dishes - from crispy salad variations of all kinds to flavorful dips and sauces. But whatever your barbecue heart desires - it tastes best in the company of friends and family. And of course, no barbecue is complete without the perfect table service.

When it comes to summer dinnerware highlights, our “MEISSEN Cosmopolitan® Blue Treasures” collection is one of our finest flagships, representing a combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern aesthetics. The vibrant underwater motifs, hand-painted in our iconic cobalt blue, look both timeless and innovative against the brilliant white of the porcelain. This collection includes not only functional pieces such as plates and bowls, but also artistic objects that will enhance any barbecue setting. The dynamic depictions of sea creatures, such as fish, lobsters and seahorses, almost seem to come to life, adding a layer of visual delight to any meal. Using only the highest quality materials and detailed craftsmanship, each piece is both a work of art and a guarantee of longevity and suitability for everyday use.
Even if the delicious, varied dishes and the table service are the star guests at every barbecue, the smaller details and highlights should not be missing. With our “White Gold” dip bowls, you can present the sauces and dips exquisitely and stylishly in their well-deserved light and offer your guests the perfect finishing touch for every tasty treat from the barbecue. These small but fine elements of table culture combine functionality with aesthetic elegance and are a must for every successful party. The decorative vases in the collection also offer the opportunity to showcase summer flower arrangements to great effect. These vases are not only practical containers for flowers, but also outstanding works of art that add a touch of luxury and artistic flair to any setting.
Invite the joy of summer into your home and let MEISSEN transform your next barbecue into an incomparable experience.
