Queen Victoria VBO

What is perhaps Herend’s most Famous Pattern is made up of almost a hundred kinds of stylized Butterflies and Sprigs of Blossom, painted in cheerful and lively colours. The strong element of the décor is the Peony, which derived from China before coming one of the favourite motifs of early European porcelain. The combination of red, blue, purple, yellow and green Butterflies, flowers and sprigs makes a cavalcade of colour, surrounded by a gilt rim that stands for the green of a meadow. In spite of the Chinese inspiration behind this imaginative combination assembled by the second founder of Herend, Mór Fischer, it gives a Hungarian impression. It recalls Hungary’s woods and meadows and the colours and murmurings of country gardens. The décor was unveiled at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851, where it scored a Huge Success. The recognition meant not only a gold medal from the  jury, but a commission from the person who gave her name to the décor.
