The Rebirth an IconThe origins of the decor can be traced back to the first half of the 18th century. Around 1730, the MEISSEN porcelain manufactory created the first variations of the world-famous onion pattern on European hard porcelain. Inspired by motifs on Chinese porcelain and faience, the MEISSEN blue painters developed the iconic cobalt blue MEISSEN onion pattern, which became the manufactory‘s best-known underglaze painting. The decoration was given the name „onion pattern“ due to the melon, which was unknown in 18th century Europe and was mistaken for an onion and, in combination with the peach, still adorns the rim of the plate to this day. Before the decoration known today as the classic onion pattern became established, there were several variations at the same time.

Tradition & craftsmanshipWhile the classic onion pattern has also been realized in green and purple on white porcelain in addition to the iconic cobalt blue in the past, “The Original” impresses with the cobalt blue onion pattern variation on a coloured background. The colors of the dishwasher- and microwave-safe collection were inspired by the manufactory‘s own color laboratory with its treasure trove of 10,000 well-preserved color recipes. The MEISSEN porcelain manufactory has been working with ground colors for around 300 years. The Uni series, consisting of six single-colored plates, each refined with a colored or gold rim, is the perfect complement to “The Original” service.
-
The Original UniThe unique combination of illuminating background colours and an elegant coloured or gold rim makes them ideal for a wide range of uses. Thanks to the unique combination of illuminating background colours and an elegant coloured or gold rim, the plain plates can be used in a variety of ways and can be individually combined with numerous MEISSEN collections as desired.
-
The Original Mix & MatchThe combination of tradition and modernity can also be lived out creatively in any home with the plain plates. Classic decors such as the iconic onion pattern, the flower painting or the exquisite decors of Indian painting,such as the Rich Dragon and Ming Dragon, shine in a whole new light when mixed and matched with the plain plates.
