⚡ From the Dawn of Electrification — This beautiful piece of history hails from the early years of electric home appliances, when manufacturers aimed to make functional items as stylish as the tableware they sat beside. The beloved Blue Onion Ware pattern, popular on china and decorative ceramics of the era, found an unexpected canvas here — a charming electric percolator!
🌿 Why “Blue Onion”? The pattern began in 18th-century Germany as a copy of Chinese porcelain designs. A stylized pomegranate was mistaken for an onion, and the name “Blue Onion” stuck — even though there’s not an onion in sight.
☕ Timeless & Functional — This percolator is completely intact, with all original parts and a heating element that works perfectly. The design is delightfully simple: no dials, no lights, and no fragile mechanisms — just plug it in, and it perks.
🪢 Original Cloth Cord — The cord is original, in perfect condition, and fully safe to use. I would have replaced it if there had been any doubt, but this one needs no upgrade.
🌏 Made in Japan — Produced during Japan’s postwar export boom, when craftsmanship and attention to detail were held to high standards, this piece blends utility with artistry.
📦 Carefully Packed & Shipped Free — Your percolator will be meticulously packed for safe travel and shipped at no extra charge anywhere in the U.S.
Whether displayed as a piece of decorative kitchen history or used to brew a pot the old-fashioned way, this Blue Onion Ware electric percolator is a rare blend of beauty, durability, and nostalgia.
