Herend Dragonfly on Lily Pad Figurine

This charming Herend figurine showcases a dragonfly resting on a lily pad. Herend has a long - standing reputation for crafting the world's finest hand - painted porcelain. Their well - known fishnet pattern, extremely popular in the US, dates back to 1858 when an artist, inspired by a Chinese plate's fish scale design, painted it on a rooster figurine's breast to mimic feathers. Each figurine is meticulously handmade in Hungary. It measures 3.5 inches in diameter and 1.5 inches in height, is crafted from porcelain, hand - painted in Hungary, and features 24K gold accents.

This lovely Herend dragonfly on lily pad figurine is mainly for display. You can place it on a mantel, bookshelf, or any flat surface in your home to add a touch of elegance. When handling the figurine, be gentle as it's made of porcelain and can break easily. To clean it, use a soft, dry cloth to dust it regularly. Avoid using any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the hand - painted finish and the 24K gold accents. Keep it away from direct sunlight for long periods to prevent the colors from fading. If you want to move it, hold it firmly but gently by the base to avoid dropping it.
