Herend has a long - standing reputation for crafting the world's finest hand - painted porcelain. Its well - known fishnet pattern, extremely 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, including this sea lion with a ball, is meticulously handmade in Hungary. It measures 2.75'L X 3'H, is crafted from porcelain, and hand - painted in Hungary, making it a unique and beautiful collectible.
This Herend sea lion figurine with a ball is a beautiful decorative piece. You can place it on a shelf, mantel, or display case to add a touch of elegance to your space. 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 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.
