A table set in blue and white always has something magical about it. In many cultures, the colour combination of deep blue and bright white is considered the epitome of elegance and harmony. Precious blue and white porcelain services were already being produced in ancient China, and soon became established in Europe as well. The Ming dynasty from 1368 to 1644 is particularly well known for its floral motifs painted underglaze on the finest white porcelain.
In Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries, royal courts and soon also middle-class households were enthusiastic about blue and white tableware, which secured its place in the history of porcelain art. To this day, blue and white tableware exerts a timeless appeal. The colour combination is incredibly versatile – it can look both classic and modern. Sometimes blue and white porcelain exudes rural cosiness in a country house style, sometimes it lends a maritime table freshness and lightness. Whether for everyday use or special occasions, blue and white tableware makes every meal a special experience.
When talking about blue and white tableware, one cannot avoid mentioning the famous blue onion tableware from Hutschenreuther. This design is the iconic example of blue and white porcelain – and boasts cult status worldwide.
Its origins date back to the 18th century, when European porcelain artists interpreted the Far Eastern floral designs of the Ming dynasty in their own way. In 1739, the first onion pattern was created – a delicate blue pattern on snow-white porcelain – which remains a classic among tableware designs to this day.
The combination of white and blue has a calming, clear and timelessly beautiful effect. The white and blue tableware Baronesse by Hutschenreuther elegantly combines these two classic colours and brings a special lightness to the table. The brilliant white stands for purity and simplicity, while the light blue radiates calm and depth. Together, they create an aesthetic balance that is inspiring both in everyday life and on special occasions. The classic, romantic design reflects the splendour of the Baroque era in a perfectly formed design and adds a romantic touch to the table setting.

Blue and white porcelain such as the onion pattern tableware or Hutschenreuther Baronesse impresses not only with its aesthetics, but also with the special craftsmanship and quality that goes into it. Even today, the blue onion decoration is still produced with genuine cobalt blue underglaze – a complex process in which the colour is fired under the glaze. Many details are created with loving craftsmanship, such as the decorated knobs on lids or the fine borders on plate rims.
This care is immediately apparent: the filigree workmanship of the ornaments is considered the unmistakable trademark of Hutschenreuther's blue and white tableware. Every cup and every plate becomes a small work of art.
Despite its historical charm, blue and white tableware from Hutschenreuther is absolutely suitable for everyday use. The robust underglaze decoration meets the demands of modern households and is dishwasher and microwave safe. This means you can use these beautiful pieces every day without having to worry about the brightness of the decoration.
At the same time, the tableware with its unique blue and white decoration offers enormous versatility: from breakfast plates to soup plates, platters and bowls to complete coffee and tea services – the iconic blue onion tableware and Hutschenreuther Baronesse provide all the pieces you need for a stylishly set table. Those who start with a few pieces of tableware can gradually expand their set. And even after years, additions can be purchased, as Hutschenreuther's white and blue designs have been in continuous production for generations.
This continuity makes blue and white porcelain a reliable companion for life. High-quality tableware loses neither its shine nor its value over time – which is why we often know Hutschenreuther's blue and white tableware as traditional family heirlooms that are passed down from generation to generation.
A table set with Hutschenreuther tableware turns every meal into a little celebration. The elegant blue and white tableware collections – from the iconic Blue Onion to the reinterpreted Baronesse Blue décor – bring a touch of history and style to your home. Imagine how the sunlight falls on the blue patterns during Sunday breakfast or how the blue and white plates attract attention at family celebrations. Tableware like this creates a unique, inviting and festive atmosphere at your stylishly set table.
