Coffee CannisterDescription
Ceramic cannister with a blue floral design on white background, "Coffee" is written in script on the front. Barrell design.
This is an example of the blue onion pattern popularized by German painters in the 18th century. They were emulating Chinese patterns, but likely misidentified the various fruits and flowers in the Chinese version. See links below for full history.Acquisition
