Herend has a long - standing reputation for crafting the world's finest hand - painted porcelain. Its iconic fishnet pattern, very popular 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, including this small tiger, is carefully handmade in Hungary. This figurine measures 5'L X 2.5'H, is crafted from porcelain, and hand - painted in Hungary, making it a unique and valuable piece.
This Herend small tiger figurine is mainly for decorative purposes. You can place it on a bookshelf, mantel, or display cabinet to add a touch of elegance to your space. When handling it, make sure to hold it gently as it's made of porcelain and can be easily damaged. To clean it, use a soft, dry cloth to dust it regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can scratch the hand - painted surface. Store it in a stable place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading over time.
