This is a Herend cachepot in the Queen Victoria pattern, made around 1970. It’s a hand‑painted porcelain planter with butterflies and peonies, a scalloped rim, and gold edging. The piece is near mint, with crisp white glaze and a clean interior, great for a small plant or a tidy desk holder. It measures 4.5 inches tall (11.25 cm), 6 inches wide (15 cm), and 4.5 inches in length and diameter (11.25 cm). At roughly fifty‑six years old, it’s solidly vintage, and cachepots in this pattern don’t show up often this clean.
Herend Porcelain Manufactory of Hungary was founded in 1826 and became famous under Mór Fischer for fully hand‑decorated wares. Every color on a Queen Victoria piece is brushed by artists and fired several times, so the enamels look lively. The pattern debuted at the 1851 Great Exhibition, where Queen Victoria bought a service that gave the pattern its name. Its hallmarks are Chinese‑style butterflies, peony blossoms, gold trim, and a fish‑scale texture. The line is still made today, but mid‑century cachepots are scarcer than plates or cups. Expect painter’s numbers and the Herend shield mark on the base. Hand‑wash only; avoid dishwashers or abrasives to keep the gilding bright.
