Description

Hutschenreuther Blue Onion 19-Piece Porcelain Coffee & Tea Service, Germany

Timeless and refined, this 19-piece Blue Onion (Zwiebelmuster) coffee and tea service by Lorenz Hutschenreuther, Selb, Bavaria, Germany, reflects the artistry and heritage of one of Europe’s most esteemed porcelain houses. Each piece is crafted of fine white porcelain, beautifully adorned with the classic cobalt blue floral motif—an 18th-century design inspired by East Asian decorative traditions and interpreted with German precision and grace.

The Blue Onion pattern, developed in the Meissen workshops nearly three centuries ago, remains a symbol of sophistication and enduring beauty. Hutschenreuther’s masterful execution of this timeless design—accented by scalloped edges, elegant curves, and luminous underglaze painting—continues that proud lineage of craftsmanship.

This elegant service for eight includes:

  • Coffee Pot with Lid – 9¼"
  • Covered Sugar Bowl – 4¼"
  • Creamer – 4⅛"
  • (8) Cups – 3½"
  • (8) Saucers – 6"

With its graceful forms, radiant glaze, and finely detailed cobalt decoration, this Hutschenreuther set transforms every coffee or tea service into an occasion of elegance. Ideal for display or entertaining, it captures the harmony of beauty, function, and tradition that defines fine Bavarian porcelain.


Condition

Excellent condition overall, with no chips, cracks, or repairs. The glaze is glossy and smooth, and all cobalt detailing remains vivid and crisp. A beautifully preserved ensemble displaying the artistry and refinement of Hutschenreuther porcelain.
