Editor's Note

Bring sculptural detail to the table with Herend’s Fish Scale gold charger plate, featuring an intricate fish-scale design and 24-karat gold accents.

Hand painted in Hungary by Herend’s master artisans, the charger is crafted from fine white porcelain and finished with a distinctive rocaille border. Inspired by the flowing forms of the Rococo period, the pattern draws on organic shapes reminiscent of seashells and natural motifs, creating depth, texture and visual interest.

Use as a decorative charger or beneath dinnerware to create an elegant layered table setting. A distinctive dinnerware collection that combines Herend’s centuries-old craftsmanship with the ornate character of the rocaille design.

The Maker

Herend has been creating unique, hand-made and hand-painted pieces of luxury porcelain with unsurpassed craftsmanship and artistry for nearly 200 years.

The Herend manufactory, at the foot of Hungary’s Bakony Hills, was founded in 1826 by Vince Stingl. From 1839 under the direction of Mór Fischer de Farkasházy, Herend produced dinnerware replacement pieces for Europe's Royal families to complement their valuable porcelain patterns from the Far East.

Fischer's innovation and high standards for execution quickly placed Herend on the map, and soon the manufactory's artists began designing dinnerware patterns of their own. Some of these dinner services would go on to be exhibited internationally, including at both the Vienna Exhibition of 1845 and London's Great exhibition of 1851.

Queen Victoria’s 1851 purchase of a large set for Windsor Castle was a milestone, and Herend was quickly required to produce unique designs for aristocrats throughout Europe.

Their best-known patterns are named after some of their most prestigious clients: Queen Victoria, Esterhazy, Batthyani, Rothschild and Apponyi.

Herend’s history of excellence continues today, and their exquisite hand-painted pieces have become heirlooms for generations to come.
