Herend Large Peacock Figurine - Limited Edition

Herend has a rich history of crafting the world's finest hand - painted porcelain. Its well - known fishnet pattern, very popular in the U.S., dates back to 1858. An artist, inspired by a Chinese plate's fish scale design, painted it on a rooster figurine's breast to mimic feathers. Every Herend figurine is carefully handmade in Hungary. Peacocks, with their stunning fanned plumage, have captivated people for millennia. They're featured in folklore, mythology, and are the national bird of India. For peahens, a peacock's train with 'ocelli' or eye - spots on its tail feathers is a sign of a good mate; more ocelli means more attractiveness. This peacock figurine measures 9.75'W X 9.25'H, is made of porcelain, hand - painted in Hungary, and is part of a numbered limited edition of 250.

This Herend peacock figurine is a beautiful decorative item. You can place it on a mantel, a bookshelf, or a display cabinet to add a touch of elegance to your home. When handling it, 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 harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the hand - painted finish. Keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading over time. Store it in a safe place if you need to move it or when not in use, and make sure it's well - cushioned to avoid any accidental knocks.
