What Is Herend Porcelain?

Herend is a world-renowned manufacturer of fine porcelain. Based in Herend, Hungary, Herend has been producing handmade and hand-painted porcelain home decor and dinnerware since 1826. Over the many years, Herend has won a number of awards and considerable recognition for their beautiful porcelain creations. In 1957, Herend products became available in the USA and now there are over 350 authorized dealers nationwide. Today, Herend offers a large selection of elegant dinnerware and porcelain figurines, from bunnies and baby shoes to cats and dogs.

Why Are Herend Figurines So Valuable?

Each Herend figurine undergoes a laborious process to be created out of the finest materials by a skilled porcelain artisan and then is hand-painted with extreme detail. The porcelain used to manufacture Herend figurines and dinnerware is the finest you can find anywhere in the world. Herend products are made from a hard-paste porcelain using a mixture of kaolin, feldspar, and quartz. After multiple firings, they are hand-painted with Herend’s trademark fishnet pattern design found on most of the figurines today. It is this use of the finest materials combined with the large amount of highly skilled labor and 100s of years of experience that goes into each piece, which makes these artful creations so valuable.

A friendship developed between the Jackson family in California and the Seillan family in Bordeaux. When Pierre Seillan visited California in 1997, he too saw the potential and did not hesitate when Jackson asked him to come to Sonoma County to realize this dream together. And so, Vérité was born.

Riedel Horn Decanter item
Riedel Horn Decanter
$350

Starting bid

In homage to the central European heritage of the Riedel family in Austria and Bohemia, the Horn Decanter was inspired by the famous post horn, the symbol of the Austrian postal system. In the 18th and 19th centuries, horse-drawn carriages were used across Europe to deliver the post in the various cities. When they arrived, the postmen would blow the horns to let people know they were there. Well-known musicians of the time such as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart used the horn in their music. The Austrian composer was born in 1756, the same year that the Riedel company was founded. Wine lovers and musicians alike can today hear the horn ringing out once again by blowing into the smaller of the two openings of the Horn Decanter. Hand-made decanter, crystal glass. WARNING: Bottle Cleaner pearls are not suitable for this decanter!

4 Bottles of 2020 Hafner Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon item
4 Bottles of 2020 Hafner Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
$90

Starting bid

Following the Bordeaux tradition of extended maceration, the wine remained with its skins for another two weeks to soften the young tannins. We then drained the wine, pressed the skins and moved the Cabernet into our caves where it was aged in oak barrels. (30% of the barrels are new.) During its first Winter, the wine underwent malolactic fermentation to lower its acidity and add richness. After many tastings in the Spring of 2022, we blended 5.5% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot with the Cabernet to increase the wine’s depth and length. We continued to barrel-age the wine until it was bottled in August 2022.

Drinkability
Fruit forward, lively and young, the 2020 Cabernet opens with complex fruit aromas of blackberries, cassis and raspberries; those aromas are enriched by fresh mint, India ink and sweet vanilla bean notes giving the wine richness and depth. On the palate, it has a bright entry and soft mid-palate with flavors of Picholine olives, herbes de Provence and steak tartare. Long and lingering on the palate, it has a toasted bread and dark chocolate finish. At five years of age, the 2020 seems young in comparison to its predecessors, but (like all of our Cabernets) it has the structure and richness to age well for at least fifteen more years.

Empress Interior item
Empress Interior
$250

Starting bid

The Empress Theatre interior is stunningly beautiful, as it opens up like a mystical cavern from the narrow, curving entrance halls.  The Art Deco plaster work on the walls, and sweeping up and across the ceiling turn the 400-seat theatre into the grand lady that the Empress is.

 

I wanted to capture the Empress interior in my painting, and to do so, I placed my design from left to right, bottom to top.  I used a long narrow canvas to capture the theatre’s height and strong color contrasts to show the beauty of the paint treatment and lighting on the ceiling’s plasterwork that glows against the dark theatre walls.
