This is a Herend ring tray in the Chinese Bouquet (Apponyi) Green pattern, made in Hungary and dated to 1970. It’s a petite porcelain jewelry plate with a hand‑painted green floral spray in the center, framed by a leafy border and finished with a delicate gold rim. The glaze is glossy and the colors are crisp, showing the careful brushwork Herend is known for. In near mint condition, the gilding looks bright and there are no chips, cracks, or staining to distract from its charm. It’s the perfect catchall beside the sink or on a nightstand for rings, earrings, or keys, and it brings a quiet bit of elegance to everyday routines.

Herend has crafted fine porcelain since 1826, firing each piece multiple times and finishing patterns entirely by hand. Chinese Bouquet, also called Apponyi, is a simplified take on the older Fleurs des Indes motif, popularized in the early 20th century through Count Albert Apponyi. The green colorway (often tagged “AV” for Apponyi Vert) is among the most beloved, and the pattern appears in many sizes and table pieces, all trimmed in real gold. Authentic Herend usually bears the blue shield backstamp and a painter’s mark. The line remains in production today, prized for its timeless, mix‑friendly style.

This vintage trinket dish is a Herend Queen Victoria jewelry tray from around 1950, and it’s in near mint shape. The porcelain has a bright, glossy glaze and a thin hand-applied gold rim that frames the colorful flower spray in the center. The painting is crisp, with layered petals in pinks, lilacs, and blues and fresh green leaves, the kind of detail you only get from a skilled decorator. It’s the perfect catchall for rings, earrings, or loose change on a nightstand or vanity. No chips, cracks, or staining—just the lightest signs of age and careful use.

Herend is a Hungarian porcelain maker founded in 1826, famous for painstaking hand painting and luminous white bodies. The Queen Victoria pattern debuted at the 1851 Great Exhibition in London; the story goes that Queen Victoria loved the design and ordered a service, and the pattern took her name. Its look is inspired by 18th‑century Asian porcelain, with peonies, butterflies, and leafy branches picked out in cheerful colors and finished with real gold. Every piece is individually decorated, so small variations are normal and desirable. Collectors look for the Herend shield mark and painter’s numbers underneath. Gentle hand washing is recommended for longevity.
