Know before you buy
This piece is crafted from authentic Herend porcelain, which is known for its durability, translucency, and high-quality finish compared to standard ceramic.
The tug boat is quite compact, measuring 2.25 inches in length and 1.25 inches in both width and height. It is designed to be a subtle accent piece rather than a large centerpiece.
No, this piece is intended for indoor use only. Exposure to the elements, moisture, and direct sunlight can damage the hand-painted finish over time.
To preserve the detail and vibrant blue color, simply dust the figurine gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges that could scratch the porcelain surface.
Because each figurine is hand-painted, there may be very slight variations in the depth and application of the blue color. This is a hallmark of Herend’s artisanal process and ensures that every piece is unique.
