Bio:
Meissen’s Zwiebelmuster was created in the 1730s and remains one of the world’s most iconic porcelain patterns. The cobalt-blue underglaze decoration is still painted by hand, representing nearly three centuries of continuous craftsmanship. Later 20th-century examples are admired for their clean execution and high quality.
