This elegant Meissen coffee cup features the brand’s world-renowned “Blue Onion” (Zwiebelmuster) pattern—hand-painted in cobalt blue on fine white porcelain. First introduced in the 18th century, this design has become one of the most iconic in European ceramic history, inspired by East Asian motifs and reinterpreted through Saxon artistry.
Each piece is meticulously hand-painted by Meissen artisans, with slight variations that highlight its individuality. The cup’s graceful silhouette, crisp glaze, and refined floral motifs make it both a functional object and a collectible work of art.
A timeless symbol of German porcelain tradition, perfect for collectors or those who enjoy a sip of history with their coffee.
Only handwash.
