Herend Medium Hippopotamus Figurine

Herend has a long - standing reputation for crafting the world's finest hand - painted porcelain. Its famous fishnet pattern, a hit in the U.S., dates back to 1858. An artist, inspired by a Chinese plate's fish scale design, painted it on a rooster figurine's breast to mimic feathers. Every Herend figurine is carefully handmade in Hungary. This hippopotamus figurine measures 5.25'L X 1.75'W X 2.5'H, is made of porcelain, and is hand - painted in Hungary.

This Herend hippopotamus figurine is a decorative piece. You can place it on a bookshelf, mantel, or display case to add a touch of elegance to your space. When handling it, be gentle as it's made of porcelain and can break easily. To clean it, use a soft, dry cloth to dust it regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they can damage the hand - painted finish. Keep it away from direct sunlight for long periods to prevent the colors from fading.
