This small Herend Victoria Baroque vase is a cheerful, hand‑painted porcelain beauty from 1960. The flared, scalloped mouth is trimmed with bright gold, and the body shows lively garden blooms in juicy shades of orange, lilac, and green. The painting is crisp and layered, with soft shading that gives the petals depth. The glaze is glossy and clean, and the gilt still pops, a good sign it’s been lightly used and well cared for. Its curvy silhouette and petite footprint make it an easy accent on a bedside table, vanity, or shelf. It’s in near mint condition, ready to display as is or to hold a small bouquet.
Herend is Hungary’s famed porcelain house, founded in 1826 and celebrated for fully hand‑painted work. The Victoria pattern—often called Queen Victoria—debuted at the 1851 Great Exhibition in London, where it caught royal attention and became a signature of the brand. Inspired by East Asian motifs, it mixes butterflies and peonies with generous 24k gold accents. Every piece is painted by a single artisan, fired multiple times, and finished with hand‑applied gilding. Vases from the mid‑century era typically bear the blue Herend shield and pattern numbers underneath. Collectors prize the craftsmanship, durability, and timeless color palette. For care, hand wash gently and avoid abrasives to keep the gold bright.
