Shown here is a Herend Antique Eagle Figurine, hand painted and sculpted in porcelain around 1960. It stands 8 inches tall, stretches a full 12 inches wide from wingtip to wingtip, and measures 6 inches front to back. The bird is caught mid-dive, talons gripping a rocky white base, with brushed brown feathers and a glossy glaze that catches the light. Condition is near mint: edges are crisp, colors are strong, and there are no chips or hairlines, remarkable for a piece about 66 years old. It has shelf presence and displays on a mantel.

Herend is Hungary’s porcelain house, founded in 1826 and celebrated for meticulous handwork. Every figurine is modeled and painted by artisans, then kiln‑fired multiple times for depth and sheen, and usually carries the Herend Hungary shield mark and the painter’s number. The company gained prestige after royal commissions in the 19th century and remains known for lifelike animals and the classic fishnet pattern. Pieces from the 1960s were produced in smaller runs than today, so an intact eagle of this size is fairly scarce and sought after by bird and Herend collectors alike. Its age, hand painting, and broad wingspan give it genuine vintage character.

This is a Herend Green Parrot figurine, handpainted porcelain bird statuette dating to 1980. At just 1.5 inches tall, 1 inch wide, and 1 inch long, it’s a petite perch-sitter. It’s in Near Mint condition—glossy glaze, no chips or repairs, minimal shelf wear to the base. The colors: soft jade green body, yellow wash on the breast, warm apricot and coral around the beak and wing tips; detailed feather texturing; perched on a white and brown branch base. At roughly 46 years old, it’s solidly vintage and a charming accent for a curio, desk, or windowsill.

Herend is Hungary’s famed porcelain house, founded in 1826 and celebrated for finely modeled, fully handpainted pieces. Every figurine is shaped, glazed, and painted by artisans, then fired multiple times; painters sign with a number or mark beside the blue Herend Hungary backstamp and form number. Their animals and birds—alongside patterns like Fishnet—are favorites with collectors because no two are exactly alike. Production in the late 1970s–1980s was smaller than today and export from behind the Iron Curtain could be spotty, so minis like this can be harder to find. Keep it dusted and avoid harsh cleaners; the glaze will stay bright for decades.
