What you’re looking at is a Herend Queen Victoria Bud Vase, a great little treasure from 1970 that’s pushing 55 years old now. This porcelain vase stands about 6 inches tall and has that classic tear-drop shape, making it just the right size for a few fresh-cut flowers or as a stylish accent piece. Its hand-painted floral and butterfly decorations really pop against the soft white background, and the details are something you don’t see every day—each piece is a tiny work of art. Thanks to its careful handling over the decades, it’s in near mint condition, which is pretty rare for something this delicate and vintage. Anyone who loves antiques or wants to add a touch of old-world charm to their home would be lucky to have this on display.
Herend is a famous Hungarian porcelain maker that’s been around since 1826, turning out some of the finest hand-painted pieces in the world. The Queen Victoria pattern, with its bright flowers and butterflies, is one of their most well-loved designs and actually dates back to the mid-1800s—named after Queen Victoria herself, who loved this pattern so much she ordered a set for Windsor Castle. Herend porcelain is known for its quality and artistry, with each item crafted and painted entirely by hand, making every single piece unique. Collectors love the Queen Victoria line because it’s classic, colorful, and it holds its value over time. Finding a bud vase like this, still in great shape after so many years, makes it even more special and a great example of fine European craftsmanship.
