Herend Bunny Egg Bonbon Queen Victoria

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 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. Queen Victoria ordered a table service in this pattern for Windsor Castle.
