Know before you buy
This piece is crafted from high-quality fine porcelain, consistent with Herend’s long-standing tradition of ceramic artistry.
The Sapphire finish is a vibrant, deep blue glaze that provides a glossy, luxurious sheen, highlighting the cheetah's muscular form and dynamic movement.
This is a delicate decorative object intended for display purposes only. It should be placed on a stable surface away from high-traffic areas to prevent accidental damage.
To maintain the finish, gently dust the figurine with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, which could scratch or dull the porcelain glaze.
Because of its dynamic, elongated pose, it is best displayed on a flat, level surface like a mantel, glass cabinet, or console table. Ensure the surface is wide enough to accommodate the full length of the sculpture.
