Description from the seller
Offered for auction is a rare and highly desirable hand-painted porcelain sculpture by the world-renowned Herend Porcelain Manufactory of Hungary.
Model 5490/C depicts a traditional Hungarian Csikós dancer in a dynamic, flowing pose – a striking example of movement, colour, and masterful craftsmanship.
Every detail of this impressive figure is individually hand-painted, showcasing Herend’s renowned artistic precision: the expressive face, the vivid red vest, the finely modelled garments, and the elegant motion of the dancer.
The base bears the authentic HEREND HUNGARY blue shield mark, along with the handwritten painter’s code and the production year 1994.
Large Herend folklore figures of this type are becoming increasingly scarce on the market. This model belongs to Herend’s sought-after folklore series, admired by collectors for its cultural richness and exceptional detail.
This sculpture serves as a powerful decorative statement and a highly collectible piece of European porcelain art.
