Herend Brocade Plateau - Limited Edition

Herend has a long - standing reputation for crafting the world's finest hand - painted porcelain. Its well - known fishnet pattern, extremely popular in the U.S., dates back to 1858. An artist, inspired by the fish scale design on a Chinese plate, painted it on a rooster figurine's breast to mimic feathers. Every Herend figurine is carefully handmade in Hungary. This Herend brocade plateau showcases 35 distinct patterns from the manufactory's history, rising from the porcelain surface like silk ribbons woven on a loom. A master painter spent 38 hours on this piece. He journeyed to the East to capture Chinoiserie elements, then to England to pay homage. An invitation from a famous banking family brought him back to the continent, and finally, he returned home where the fruits and flowers in Herend's new and old patterns inspired him. It measures 18'L X 12'W, is handmade of porcelain, hand - painted in Hungary, and is part of a numbered limited edition of 25.

This Herend brocade plateau is a beautiful decorative piece. You can use it to display small trinkets, like jewelry or keys, or as a centerpiece on your dining table. When handling it, be gentle because it's made of porcelain and can break easily. To clean it, use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the hand - painted patterns. Keep it away from direct sunlight for long periods to prevent the colors from fading. Store it in a safe place, preferably in a padded box or a display cabinet to protect it from dust and potential impacts.
