Leaf
Some species of tree frogs use a technique called startle coloration to protect themselves from predators.

Mallard Duck Family
This sweet addition to the Reserve Collection features a mallard duck family with the mother keeping a close eye on her young.

Pelicans on Pier
To properly convey the remarkable presence of these birds, Herend’s artists have taken some artistic license since the pelican’s normal subdued coloring stands in stark contrast to their colorful personalities. Limited Edition of 175 107
Sandhill Crane and Babies
At the hands of the artists at Herend, these gregarious birds take on a dainty quality. Known for living in family groups most of the year, the sweet, maternal vignette of the crane with two of its young completes this very charming figurine. Limited Edition of 150 108
Spotted Sandpiper on Driftwood
In the hands of Herend’s artists, the spotted sandpiper makes his debut in dramatic fashion from his striking coloration to the swirls of texture on the driftwood to the natural painting on the shells so detailed they appear plucked from nature.
Limited Edition of 200 109
Swan
With this achingly elegant swan, Herend’s artists have employed a striking, new painting technique to capture the airy, delicate composition of a bird’s feather. To heighten the swan’s allure further, the face has been painted in a natural coloration which gives full expression to the haunting beauty of this figurine . Limited Edition of 175 110
Wood Duck
It is immediately identifiable by its glamorous plumage; however, even if presented only in silhouette, the wood duck would still be recognizable by its unique shape consisting of a famously boxy, crested head and long, broad tail. Luckily, Herend’s figurine features all dimensions and kaleidoscopic colors of this perching waterfowl and combines multiple patterns and painting techniques. Limited Edition of 150 111
