Herend Hungary marks

Herend Hungary marks can read HANDPAINTED; a painter’s mark differs from a model number and the letters naming a design variant.

Names, emblems and neighbouring codes

HEREND HUNGARY HANDPAINTED is a documented wording form. A model number identifies a shape while decoration letters or numbers identify a design variant; these are separate from a painter’s mark.

What to check next

Record every number and letter, including those outside the printed factory emblem. Compare a figure’s pose and size or a vessel’s profile before choosing a decoration variant.
