This porcelain vase was created by the prestigious Hungarian porcelain manufacturer Herend, known for their high-quality hand-painted porcelain since 1826. The 'Queen Victoria' or 'Victoria' pattern, featuring colorful butterflies and floral motifs, was originally designed in 1851 for Queen Victoria of England who purchased a set at the Great Exhibition in London, giving the pattern its name.
The Victoria pattern has become one of Herend's most iconic and sought-after designs, characterized by its vibrant butterflies and Chinese-inspired floral compositions. Collectors of fine European porcelain particularly value these pieces for their exquisite hand-painting, historical significance, and the prestige of the Herend brand. These vases are especially prized by collectors of Hungarian porcelain and those interested in royal-commissioned decorative arts.
