Rothschild Bird Green Pattern
Many connoisseurs consider this pattern, first created in 1860 for the Rothschild family of Europe, to be the epitome of hand painting on porcelain. Twelve different motifs portray a 19th-century tale about Baroness Rothschild, who lost her pearl necklace in the garden of her Vienna residence. Several days later it was found by her gardener, who saw birds playing with it in a tree.

The Rothschild birds may be the most famous Herend birds but there are many other avian beauties in the catalog that deserve their time in the spotlight. With the Birds of Herend tray, rarely seen bird motifs have flown their coop in the Herend archives and are presented in stunning detail nestled among vivid scenes of flowers and foliage. Adding to the rich presentation are gold fishscale details and faux-bois handles that mimic the birds natural home.

L’OBJET aspires to offer designs for the home that are both luxurious and functional, to the highest degree of excellence possible. As a young and successful Hollywood interior designer, our founder Elad Yifrach was frustrated by the limited options available to him. So, in 2004, he started the company, based firmly on a commitment to artistic integrity and material innovation, to produce objects that integrated beauty with design. The techniques we use set L’OBJET apart from all others. They are entirely our own. Take, for example, the Byzanteum Collection. To achieve such extraordinary texture, we create a plaster mould so intricate and refined it can yield a maximum of only 15 pieces, compared to the Fine porcelain standard—reliant on a less articulated mould—of 150. Similarly, the masterful hand-application techniques and complex layering of different golds that allow us to achieve such brilliance are unheard of in the industry.

The original set, introduced in 1851 at the First World Exhibition in London, was purchased by Queen Victoria herself. Subsequently named for her, this Chinese-influenced pattern demands the skills of Herend's most talented and experienced painters.

Herend holds a rich history spanning many years, crossing many oceans and charming generation after generation to enjoy worldwide acclaim as the pinnacle in supreme porcelain, also known as “white gold.” Now the biggest porcelain manufactory in Europe, Herend was founded in 1826 in the small village of Herend, Hungary to produce pottery. In 1839 a major turning point occurred when Mor Fischer became the manufactory’s new owner. Taking Herend in an entirely new direction, visionary Fischer carved out the unique niche of producing dinnerware replacement pieces for Europe’s royal families to complement their valuable porcelain patterns from Germany and the Far East.
Fischer engineered a string of royal successes that quickly put Herend on the map and led to the next phase of Herend’s growth when manufactory artists began designing dinnerware patterns of their own. Queen Victoria’s 1851 purchase of a large set for Windsor Castle was a milestone, setting the stage for aristocrats throughout Europe to clamor for Herend in their estates.
Derived from the intricate motifs and lush colors of Indian Basket, the Chinese Bouquet pattern was designed for Count Albert Apponyi in 1930. The Far East influence of ancient chinoiserie is apparent in the details of this vibrant pattern.
Originally created in 1930 in raspberry coloration for Count Albert Apponyi, the Chinese Bouquet pattern features a center motif of a stylized peony surrounded by a garland of leaves with 24K gold rosettes. It is available in multiple color options such as blue, green and rust.
