This piece is a Herend Victoria cache pot from around 1970, a small decorative planter made of fine hand‑painted porcelain. It shows off lively peonies and fluttering butterflies in pinks, greens, blues, and oranges, with a gently scalloped rim trimmed in real gold. The glaze is glossy and clean, with the crisp brushwork Herend is known for. At roughly 56 years old, it’s a true vintage example and is described as Near Mint—no chips or cracks, just light signs of careful display. Size is handy for a windowsill plant or desk flowers: height 3.5 inches (8.75 cm), width 5 inches (12.5 cm), length 4.5 inches (11.25 cm), diameter 4.5 inches (11.25 cm).

Herend Porcelain of Hungary has been crafting handmade, hand‑painted porcelain since 1826. The Victoria pattern—often called Queen Victoria—debuted at London’s Great Exhibition in 1851 and was purchased by Queen Victoria herself, which is how it got its name. The design blends European porcelain with Asian‑inspired butterflies and blossoms, finished with gold accents. Because each piece is painted by an artist, no two are exactly alike, and 1970s examples in this condition don’t surface every day. Collectors prize the bright palette, the quality of the porcelain body, and the long tradition behind the mark that reads Herend Hungary Handpainted.

This is a petite Herend Rothschild jewellery tray from around 1960, made for holding rings, cufflinks, or small keepsakes. The white porcelain body has a scalloped, shell-like outline with a hand-painted scene of two songbirds on branches, flanked by a colorful butterfly and a tiny moth, and finished with a fine gilt rim. It measures 1 inch high, 2 inches wide, and 3.5 inches long, a perfect size for a nightstand or vanity. Condition is Near Mint, with bright enamel colors and only the faintest signs of age. At roughly 66 years old, it’s a tidy mid-century piece with real charm.

Herend, founded in 1826 in Hungary, is famous for hand-painted porcelain supplied to royal courts. The Rothschild Bird pattern dates to the 1850s and tells a family tale: a misplaced pearl necklace was said to be discovered in a tree by birds, so pieces show birds, insects, and sometimes a dangling necklace. Each item is painted freehand and edged with 24k gold, so no two are exactly alike. Collectors love mid-century Herend because the painting is crisp and production numbers were modest. Small trays like this aren’t common and, in good condition, are considered vintage rather than everyday commonware.

This small porcelain ring tray is a Herend Apponyi Pur Pur Purple piece from around 1960. It’s an oval jewelry plate with a 1 inch profile, about 3 inches wide by 4 inches long, handy for keeping rings or earrings by the sink or bedside. The white ground is hand painted with the bold pink‑purple Apponyi bouquet and finished with fine gold trim that’s still bright. Condition is near mint: the glaze is glossy, the rim gilding is crisp, and there are no chips, cracks, or repairs. At roughly 66 years old, it’s true mid‑century vintage and not easy to find this clean.

Herend, founded in 1826 in Hungary, is known for hand‑painted hard‑paste porcelain and gold accents. The Apponyi pattern is a simplified version of the older Indian Basket design, created for Count Albert Apponyi in the 1930s. Purpur denotes the purple colorway; the motif also appears in green, blue, and orange. Each piece is painted and gilded by hand and fired multiple times, so even small trays show real craftsmanship. Mid‑century Herend remains sought after by collectors, and compact vanity trays turn up less often than dinnerware. Hand‑wash only and avoid harsh cleaners to protect the 24k gilding.

This small oval dish is a Herend Apponyi Green ring tray from around 1950. At 1 inch high, 2.5 inches wide, and 3 inches long, it’s a tidy bedside or vanity catchall. The white porcelain shows the Apponyi green bouquet in the center, a leafy border, and hand-applied gold trim. It’s in Near Mint condition with bright color and clean gilding, no chips or cracks—just light, careful use for a piece about 76 years old. The shallow well keeps rings or earrings safe, and its petite footprint makes an easy, elegant accent on a dresser.

Herend, Hungary’s renowned porcelain maker, was founded in 1826 and rose to fame after the 1851 Great Exhibition, earning royal clients. Every item is hand painted and fired multiple times; most bear the blue Herend shield and painter’s marks underneath. The Apponyi pattern—also called Chinese Bouquet—was created at Count Albert Apponyi’s request as a simplified take on Herend’s earlier Indian Basket motif. The green version is the classic and pairs with 24k gold edges. While the design is still produced, mid-century ring trays were made in smaller numbers, so examples of this size and in Near Mint shape are genuinely vintage and getting harder to find.

Pieces are freehand painted and fired multiple times, then edged with 24k gold, so no two are exactly alike. Bud vases from the 1950s–60s weren’t made in large numbers, and clean survivors like this are sought by collectors. At this size it’s easy to display, and the cheerful birds and insects fit both classic china cabinets and modern, minimalist shelves.

The Rothschild Bird pattern dates to the 1860s and grew from a family tale about a lost pearl necklace found in a tree—hence the birds, branches, and tiny insects. Each piece was decorated by a single painter, often signed or numbered on the base, and trimmed with real 24k gold. While the pattern is beloved and widely collected, amphora vases in this size from 1970 are comparatively scarce, making this a true vintage find with enduring charm.

Bud vases from the 1970s appear less often than plates or cups, so this near mint example is a collectible find.

Each vase carries artisan brushwork and hand-applied gold accents, so no two are identical. Examples from the late 1960s–1970s with intact gilding and crisp motifs are considered desirable and a bit scarce, especially in near mint shape like this one.

Herend, founded in 1826 in Hungary, became famous after the 1851 London Great Exhibition, when Queen Victoria purchased a dinner service.

Authentic pieces typically carry the Herend mark and painter’s numbers on the base. While the Queen Victoria line is still produced, vintage shapes from the 1960s–70s—especially miniatures—are sought after for their detailed brushwork and lush gilding. Hand wash only to protect the gold.
