Considered to be Herend’s most famous pattern, the “Queen Victoria” design was first exhibited at the World’s Fair in London in 1851. Celebrated for is array of beautifully hand-painted butterflies, peony and floral elements, the design caught the attention of Queen Victoria, who purchased a table service for Windsor Castle. Due to its popularity, the design is still in production today.
