Herend has a long - standing reputation for crafting the world's finest hand - painted porcelain. In 1858, an artist in the U.S. was fascinated by the fish scale design on a Chinese plate and painted it on a rooster figurine's breast to mimic feathers, creating Herend's famous fishnet pattern. Each Herend rooster figurine is meticulously handmade in Hungary. It stands 4.25 inches high and is 3 inches long. Made of porcelain, it is then hand - painted in Hungary, making it a unique and exquisite piece.
This Herend rooster figurine is mainly for decoration. You can place it on a mantel, a bookshelf, or a side table to add a touch of elegance to your space. When handling it, be gentle as it's made of porcelain and can break easily. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight for long periods as it may fade the hand - painted colors. To clean it, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe away dust. If there are stubborn stains, slightly dampen the cloth with water (not too wet) and then wipe, followed by drying it immediately with a dry part of the cloth.
