This porcelain jewelry box is a sweet little keeper for rings and small treasures. It’s the Herend Apponyi Pink Chinese Bouquet pattern, with the domed lid painted in bold raspberry blossoms and a crisp gilt band circling the body. The glaze is bright and clean, and the lid sits nicely without wobble. Made in 1970 and kept in near mint condition, the colors are still lively and the gold is smooth with only the faintest signs of careful handling. No chips, cracks, or stains are apparent, and the inside is pristine, ready to live on a vanity or bedside table.

Herend is Hungary’s famed porcelain house, handcrafting fine hard‑paste pieces since 1826. Every step is done by artists, from casting to the last brushstroke. The Apponyi design is a streamlined take on Herend’s Chinese Bouquet, created for Count Albert Apponyi, and collectors know the pink version as Raspberry. Gilding is typically real gold, painted and fired for durability. Authentic pieces show the blue shield backstamp and often a painter’s mark. The pattern remains in production, but earlier examples like this have period details and a warmer gold tone. Care is simple: gentle hand washing, no abrasives, and avoid dishwashers altogether.
