DESCRIPTION:
HEREND HIPPOPOTAMUS — Reserve Collection Limited Edition SKU: 16036-0-00 VHSP117 | Limited Edition of 150 Pieces Worldwide
✨ Why This Piece Is So Special
This is one of the most extraordinary Herend figurines ever created — a large-scale Hippopotamus from Herend's prestigious Reserve Collection, strictly limited to just 150 examples worldwide. Once these are gone, they are gone forever.
Herend's master artists have created something truly magical here: the hippo is rendered in the iconic grey fishnet (VHSP117) pattern, and across his body cascade hand-painted 24k gold water lily pads, creating the enchanting illusion that this magnificent creature is wading through his beloved aquatic home. The gold hooves and fine detailing throughout speak to the extraordinary level of craftsmanship that has made Herend the choice of royalty and collectors for nearly 200 years.
About Herend
Founded in 1826 in the village of Herend, Hungary, Herend Porcelain Manufactory is one of the world's most celebrated producers of hand-painted fine porcelain. Every single piece is handmade and hand-painted by master artisans — no two are exactly alike. Herend has supplied royal households across Europe for generations, including the British Royal Family.
The iconic fishnet (Vieux Herend) pattern was born in 1858 when a Herend artist, captivated by a Chinese fish-scale design, painted it onto a figurine — and a legend was born.
