Herend Blue Fishnet Mini Cat

Montgomery Gate Verified independent store

A hand-painted Herend porcelain cat, seated and turning to glance back over its shoulder, decorated in the house's iconic blue fishnet (vyrhímzés) — each tiny scale brushed individ ually by hand over white porcelain — with hand-applied 24k gold to the face, ears, and paws. Herend has produced these collectible animal figures in Hungary since the 19th century, and the fishnet motif is the maison's signature; the hand-gilded details and crisp scalework are exactly what collectors prize. A perfect little treasure to pair with blue-and-white porcelain or jasperware. Carries the painted Herend backstamp to the base. Lovely condition with light wear to the gilding consistent with age; no chips or cracks. Show more
