If Herend porcelain pieces could talk, they would regale us with tales of dinners at Queen Elizabeth’s table, Rothschild family festivities and which figurine, tucked into Princess Diana’s Christmas stocking each year, was her favorite. The European porcelain emporium to the royals since 1839 has continued to delight collectors for nearly two centuries and today, many of us remain completely enchanted by Herend.

If you’re a collector or admirer, you’ll be pleased to know that Charles Willis, the premier shop for all things fine china in Atlanta, is hosting a Herend trunk show through Christmas. An Atlanta tradition since 1948, Charles Willis caters to couples registering for their weddings and clients wanting special occasion items such as crystal and silver. Now on display are hundreds of hand-painted Herend pieces, from plates to figurines, to marvel at and help you check names off your Christmas list. If you’re a Herend connoisseur, you’ll be treated to rarely displayed platinum, copper, lavender, and turquoise collections as well as limited edition porcelains. Let’s take a gander at the goods, shall we?

For the Table

Serve in style on Herend’s fine china and don’t forget the fabulous foo dogs too! Shown here is the ever-classic Rothschild Bird pattern.

An elegant cake stand available only during Herend trunk shows! Aren’t the confections splendid? The three-tiered cake would make a lovely wedding gift.

More exquisite china—the green striped butterfly motif is hard to come by.

Festive Folly

Add some charm to your Thanksgiving table with a little bunny pilgrim and beautifully detailed turkeys, seen here in Herend’s rich copper hue.

A true work of art, this limited edition nativity set is one of only thirty in the world! You’ll enjoy displaying it year after year.

Deck the halls with these darling (bunny) reindeer friends in a rainbow of yummy colors.

It’s never too early to start planning your Easter tablescape. Have some happy bunnies hopping around the table!

Gifts Galore

There’s an animal figurine for just about everyone!

Find a sweet piece to start baby’s Herend collection. The raspberry and green patterned bear is a trunk show exclusive!

We all know a dog lover! With plenty of breeds and themes to choose from, one of these canines is sure to set tails wagging.

I have my eye on this Westie—hint, hint Santa!

The coastal collection is one of my personal favorites. Have a friend with a beach house? Pick up the perfect little hostess gift for them.

We are in the South after all! Don’t forget the college sports fan. Charles Willis has done all the work for you by selecting a mascot for each school’s team and they are extra spirited.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this small sampling of all the Herend goodness available at Charles Willis through Christmas. While at the shop, don’t forget to enter their drawing for a pretty piece in November and December! You could be the lucky winner of an alligator or, the grand prize, an antelope figurine. For the quintessential Atlanta holiday experience, pop by Charles Willis for some shopping followed by lunch at Buckhead Diner just down the street and a can’t-miss performance of The Nutcracker at The Fox Theatre. It’s the perfect way to drum up some Christmas cheer!

Two lucky winners will receive these fabulous figurines by entering their in-store drawing. Bonne chance!
