Know before you buy
This piece is crafted from fine porcelain, which is the hallmark of Herend’s traditional manufacturing. It features a smooth, glazed finish that highlights the intricate hand-painted details.
Authentic Herend porcelain typically features a blue maker's mark on the underside, which includes the company crest and the 'Herend' name. You should look for this stamp to confirm its origin and vintage status.
Yes, because Herend pieces are hand-painted, there can be subtle variations in the depth and application of the green pigment. This artisanal process ensures that each figurine has its own unique character.
To preserve the finish, gently dust the figurine with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. If a deeper clean is necessary, use a damp cloth with mild soap, but ensure it is dried immediately to prevent water spots on the glaze.
While Herend porcelain is durable, it is a delicate collectible. It is best displayed in a stable, low-traffic area like a glass cabinet or a secure shelf away from the edge to prevent accidental damage.
