The rich tradition and history of onion pattern dates back to old China, the origin nation of porcelain. There, floral motifs in underglaze painting on the finest white porcelain can already be found in the Ming period (1368 - 1644). The asymmetric arrangement of the different motifs, which emanated from the Japanese Kakimon painting in Arita, can be rediscovered, for example, in the aster-bamboo bouquet of the onion pattern. European artists of the 18th century were inspired by China's fashion at the time and took an enthusiastic look and created their own decors, which have lost nothing of their fascination to this day. The famous onion pattern then came about in the year 1739. This designation arose in the vernacular under the misrecognition of the true motifs in the onion pattern. In fact, there are no onions in this decor, but pomegranates, peaches, peonies and an aster-bamboo bouquet. The white form of the Meissner porcelain factory C. Teichert, which dates back to a design from 1728, was taken over in 1926 by Lorenz Hutschenreuther, and introduced to the market as Maria Theresa. Also from C. Teichert comes "Blue Onion Pattern", which has been produced by Hutschenreuther since 1930. Even today, pure cobalt colour is used, and there is still a high proportion of manual labour, such as painting with staffages, lid buttons, plate edges and cupboards. The fine design of the details is a distinguishing feature of the "Hutschenreuther Blue Onion Pattern". The design meets the requirements of a modern household and is of course dishwasher and microwave safe. This tradition has been continued until today, the baroque "Blue Onion Pattern" is still the most successful and extensive series of the Hutschenreuther brand, and always finds its lovers for many table experiences every day.
