Herend Snowshoe Hare Figurine

Snowshoe hares are named for their big hind feet. These feet stop them from sinking in the snow as they hop. Our Herend Snowshoe Hare Figurines are adorable little creatures with tiny heart - shaped noses. Herend has a long - standing reputation for crafting the world's finest hand - painted porcelain. The well - known fishnet pattern design, very popular in the U.S., started in 1858 when an artist, inspired by a Chinese plate's fish scale design, painted it on a rooster figurine's breast to mimic feathers. Each figurine is lovingly handmade in Hungary. It measures 2.25'L x 1.5'W x 2.75'H and was introduced in 2023. It's made of porcelain and hand - painted in Hungary.

This Herend Snowshoe Hare Figurine is a lovely decorative piece. You can place it on a bookshelf, mantel, or display cabinet to add a touch of charm 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 any 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. Store it in a safe place if you're not displaying it, and consider wrapping it in a soft cloth to protect it from scratches.
