THE CURATOR’S NOTES

The Story of“Blue Garland” by Herend

THE PIECE
Herend's Blue Garland pattern represents one of the manufactory's most delicate and graceful designs—featuring hand-painted cornflower blue blossoms trailing along pink vines with emerald green leaves in a naturalistic botanical arrangement. This rectangular tray showcases the pattern's versatility beyond traditional dinnerware, with sculptural gilt wheat sheaf handles at each end that demonstrate Herend's mastery of dimensional porcelain work. The piece bears the special 150th anniversary backstamp (1826-1976), marking Herend's sesquicentennial celebration and making it a particularly collectible example for those seeking commemorative pieces alongside functional serving ware.

This listing includes:
• One (1) Rectangular Tray with Wheat Sheaf Handles, Shape 436 PBG - 14.5" length (36.8cm) x 6.25" width (15.9cm) x 0.75" height (1.9cm)

Condition: Excellent—museum-quality presentation with no chips, cracks, repairs, or crazing. All 24k gilt trim intact with no wear on rim or sculptural wheat sheaf handles. Surface pristine with no scratches, utensil marks, or staining. Handles secure with no restoration.

An ideal starting point for collectors seeking authentic European porcelain rather than contemporary imitations, this piece delivers Herend's documented heritage at an accessible price—the same timeless craftsmanship featured regularly in Veranda and Town & Country as a design editor favorite for its enduring versatility.

Details:
• Collection: Herend Porcelain | Design: "Blue Garland" (PBG)
• Material: Hungarian hard-paste porcelain with hand-painted underglaze decoration in cornflower blue, pink, and green with 24k gold accents and sculptural wheat sheaf handles
• Size: 14.5" length (36.8cm) | 6.25" width (15.9cm) | 0.75" height (1.9cm)
• Made in: Hungary
• Production Period: 1976 (150th anniversary commemorative production, as indicated by special wreath backstamp marking 1826-1976)
• Authentication: Blue castle backstamp with 150th anniversary wreath design reading "HEREND HANDPAINTED 1826-1976" with Shape 436, PBG pattern marking
• Rarity: 150th anniversary commemorative piece—special backstamp produced only during Herend's sesquicentennial year makes this more collectible than standard production examples

The Blue Garland pattern showcases Herend's mastery of delicate botanical hand-painting, featuring cornflower blue blossoms connected by graceful pink vines and punctuated with emerald green leaves that create movement across the pristine white porcelain surface. This rectangular tray elevates the pattern through functional elegance—the sculptural gilt wheat sheaf handles at each end provide both practical grip and decorative flourish, while the generous 14.5" length makes it ideal for serving bread, appetizers, or displaying decorative objects. The scalloped ends with gilt edging add dimensional sophistication, and the shallow profile allows the pattern to remain visible when filled. The 150th anniversary backstamp adds significant collectibility, as commemorative pieces from landmark years are increasingly sought by Herend enthusiasts building comprehensive collections that document the manufactory's evolution.
