Description :

A fine example of Meissen craftsmanship, this antique butter board features the iconic “Blue Onion” (Zwiebelmuster) pattern, first introduced in the 18th century and beloved by collectors worldwide. The crisp cobalt blue floral motif is hand-painted on white porcelain, showcasing Meissen’s signature underglaze technique.

  • Maker: Meissen, Germany

  • Pattern: Blue Onion (Zwiebelmuster)

  • Form: Butter board / small serving tray

  • Markings: Underglaze crossed swords mark to base

  • Estimated Date: Late 19th to early 20th century

  • Condition: Some repairs have been done- see photos. Light wear consistent with age and use throughout.

This piece is ideal for display or use in a refined table setting. A charming addition to any collection of European porcelain or Blue Onion-patterned wares. From what we can tell this piece should be able to clean up nicely and the yellow glaze should be able to be removed without harm.


Dimensions : 10 in L x 6 in W
