Meissen: Cosmopolitan Blue Treasures

Dinner Plate Lobster 30 cm

A lobster with excellent table manners

The MEISSEN Cosmopolitan Blue Treasures lobster dinner plate 30 cm is not a plate designed to disappear quietly into the background. On brilliant white hard porcelain, an artfully hand-painted lobster appears in deep cobalt blue – detailed, graphic and full of calm presence. With a diameter of 30 cm, a height of 3.2 cm and a weight of 0.95 kg, the plate offers generous space for main courses, fish, seafood, pasta, vegetable dishes or festive menus. The motif is positioned deliberately on the rim, leaving the centre free for the food. Thoughtful, elegant and, quite conveniently, a small conversation starter before the starter plates have even left the table.

When maritime motifs suddenly feel grown-up

The Meissen Blue Treasures collection translates the underwater world into contemporary porcelain art. Fish, shells, seahorses and lobsters appear in cobalt blue underglaze painting, recalling historic natural studies while feeling fresh and modern. The clean shape of the Cosmopolitan series gives the decoration exactly the space it needs: enough presence for the motif, yet enough restraint for a calm table setting. The dinner plate pairs beautifully with other pieces from the collection, including dessert plates, cereal bowls, mugs and serving platters. It looks especially elegant with light linen, clear glassware and cutlery in silver or brushed gold.

From a manufactory that has known what lasts since 1710

The State Porcelain Manufactory Meissen has stood for exceptional quality, precise craftsmanship and porcelain with cultural depth since it was founded in 1710. Each piece begins with pure kaolin from the manufactory’s own mine near Meissen. Combined with feldspar and quartz, it becomes a porcelain body known for its whiteness, hardness and luminous clarity. The famous blue Crossed Swords have represented authenticity and quality since 1722 and are among the oldest trademarks in Europe.

For tables worth lingering at

The lobster dinner plate from the Cosmopolitan Blue Treasures collection is dishwasher safe, microwave safe and, despite its distinctive appearance, wonderfully suitable for everyday use. It adds an expressive motif to MEISSEN’s maritime service and can also be combined with plain white porcelain from the Cosmopolitan line. The result is a table setting that feels considered rather than staged. For those looking for a piece of Meissen porcelain that brings together craftsmanship, modern elegance and a hint of sea air. Without feeling like a souvenir. Thankfully.
