This is a Herend Queen Victoria bud vase, hand painted and made of fine porcelain. It’s a lovely piece from around 1970, making it over 50 years old now, and definitely entering the territory of being a true vintage collectible. The vase stands about 6 inches tall and is nearly mint in condition, which is tough to find for pieces from this era. Adorned with its iconic colorful floral motif and delicate butterflies, it has the unmistakable Herend touch—elegant, yet inviting, and just the right size to brighten up any windowsill or table with a few fresh flowers. The colors are still vibrant, and the details are incredibly crisp, a testimony to the skilled artistry that went into its creation.
Herend porcelain is a name that carries a lot of history and prestige. Founded in Hungary back in 1826, Herend became world-renowned for its fine hand-painted porcelain, especially after Queen Victoria ordered a large dinner set in 1851—hence the “Queen Victoria” pattern that you see on this vase. Every piece from this line is unique, since it’s painted by hand, and collectors go crazy for that kind of craftsmanship. The Queen Victoria pattern, with its cheerful mix of butterflies and blooming flowers, is one of Herend’s most beloved designs and symbolizes luxury and timeless beauty. Herend porcelain is known for lasting generations if cared for, so finding a piece from 1970 in such excellent shape is a real treat, and it’s definitely the kind of item that can get passed on as a family heirloom or stand out on a collector’s shelf.
