Frog Prince is painted in Vieux Herend (VHTQ) rust Fish scale design. This fishnet or fish scale pattern is a typical motif of Herend, painted in delicate gold leaf. The first figurine of the Herend Porcelain Manufactory decorated with a feather-like scaled design was made in 1871. Back then, the famous Hungarian writer Mór Jókai received a rooster with this pattern. The scaled pattern soon became known worldwide as Herend’s specialty. A variety of different animal figurines became sought after collectors’ pieces.
