Herend Nautilus - Limited Edition

Herend has a long - standing reputation for crafting the world's finest hand - painted porcelain. Their famous fishnet pattern, a big hit in the US, 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. The nautilus, a living fossil that has remained unchanged for over 500 million years, is a masterpiece of nature. Herend artists recognized its perfection and added Herend - style details like a bold gold fishnet and pearlized paint to enhance its beauty. This figurine measures 7'L X 5.25'H, is handmade of porcelain, hand - painted in Hungary, and is part of a numbered limited edition of 150.

This Herend Nautilus figurine is mainly for display. You can put it on a shelf, a mantel, or a coffee table to add a touch of elegance to your space. When handling it, make sure your hands are clean and dry to avoid leaving fingerprints or dirt on the delicate porcelain. Avoid placing it in areas where it can be easily knocked over, like the edge of a table. To clean it, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe away any dust. Don't use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the hand - painted finish. If you need to move it, hold it firmly but gently at the base. Enjoy this unique piece and let it be a conversation starter in your home.
