HISTORICAL AND DESIGN FACTS
1. Herend’s Queen Victoria decoration became internationally known at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851.
2. The pattern was named after Queen Victoria after she ordered a dinner service decorated with its colorful flowers, butterflies, and branches.
3. Herend porcelain is traditionally painted by hand, so minor differences in brushwork, colors, and motif placement make each piece individually distinctive.
