Six antique Meissen Blue Onion dinner plates in hand-painted porcelain. Late 19 century.
Diameter: 24,5 cm.
Stamped.

3rd factory quality.
The Meissen "onion" pattern was originally named the "bulb" pattern. While modeled closely after a pattern first produced by Chinese porcelain painters, which featured pomegranates unfamiliar in Saxony, the plates and bowls produced in the Meissen factory in 1740 adopted a feel that was distinctly their own.
