This beautiful piece is a Herend Large Queen Victoria Trinket Box, made around 1960, which makes it over sixty years old and considered a true vintage find. It’s made from fine porcelain and is in near mint condition—impressively well-preserved for its age, with no signs of chips, cracks, or much wear. The box itself measures about 1.5 inches in height, 3 inches in width, and 4 inches in length, making it the perfect size for holding treasured jewelry, small keepsakes, or even special notes. The design features rich, hand-painted flowers and butterflies in lively hues of green, orange, purple, and blue, along with elegant touches of gold trim. The craftsmanship really catches your eye: delicate brushstrokes, vibrant colors, and graceful gold accents all combine to make this trinket box stand out as both an attractive decorative piece and a practical item.
Herend, the legendary Hungarian porcelain manufacturer, is known for producing some of the world’s most beautiful hand-painted porcelain. Started back in 1826, Herend quickly gained a reputation for high quality and stunning, detailed artistry. The Queen Victoria pattern, introduced in 1851 at the London Great Exhibition, is probably their best-known and most beloved pattern. The story goes that Queen Victoria herself admired the pattern so much that it was named after her. With its playful butterflies, peonies, and lush greens and golds, the Queen Victoria design has become almost iconic in the world of fine china. Genuine vintage Herend pieces, especially those in this excellent condition, are highly sought after by collectors because of their age, rarity, and the hand-crafted artistry that goes into each item. Each porcelain piece is hand-painted by a skilled artist, so no two are exactly the same—giving items like this jewelry box a sense of uniqueness and personal charm you just don’t get from modern mass production. Owning a Herend Queen Victoria trinket box is like owning a little piece of art and history, wrapped up in color, craftsmanship, and old-world elegance.
