Herend has a rich global reputation for crafting the most beautiful hand - painted porcelain over a long history. The well - loved fishnet pattern design in the U.S., dating back to 1858, started when an artist, inspired by a Chinese plate's fish scale design, painted it on a rooster figurine's breast to mimic feathers. Each Herend sailboat figurine is painstakingly handmade in Hungary. It measures 3'L X 5'H, is made of high - quality porcelain, and is hand - painted in Hungary, making it a unique collectible.

This Herend sailboat figurine is a beautiful collectible, not for regular play. Display it in a dry, dust - free place, like on a shelf or in a glass cabinet. To clean, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the surface. Avoid using any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the hand - painted finish. When moving the figurine, hold it firmly but gently to prevent it from falling and breaking.
