Herend Porcelain Ducks | Rust Fishnet with Gold Gilding
Herend Porcelain Ducks | Rust Fishnet with Gold Gilding
The pattern that never lost patience….
These two porcelain ducks look so peaceful resting here, don’t they? The Hungarian workshop Herend really nailed their branding, showing off that famous precision they're known for. You've got the signature fishnet design, carefully hand-painted, running right up to the wings, which are painted with jewel tones cobalt, turquoise, and magenta. And their beak well anything gilted is gold, litterally.

Black & Gold Condition Guide
✨ We believe every piece tells a story — here’s how we describe the chapters they’ve lived so far:
Mint / Like New Practically time-traveled. Looks as though it’s never been used. Crisp, clean, and flawless.
Excellent Well-preserved with only the most minor signs of age (think a faint scratch or two, visible only if you squint). Structurally sound and show-stopping.
Very Good Loved and cared for. Some small signs of wear — maybe light surface marks, gentle fading, or a touch of patina — but nothing that distracts from its beauty or function.
Good Has earned its character. Noticeable wear such as scratches, discoloration, or finish loss, all consistent with age and use. Still fully functional and fabulous.
Well-Loved / As-Is This one has stories to tell. Expect visible flaws or wear (chips, cracks, missing parts), but still worthy for display, repurposing, or as a collector’s gem.
