Herend Porcelain Trophy at 2024 Formula One Hungarian Grand Prix

Описание: In 2024, the Herend Porcelain Manufactory will once again be the official trophy supplier for the Hungarian Grand Prix of Formula 1.

Herend has become the world leader in crafting luxury handmade porcelain. When people hear the name Herend, they think of high-quality luxury porcelain, which is part of Hungary's national image. The organizers of the Hungarian Grand Prix also trust Herend Porcelain Manufactory to design and create the victory and constructors' trophies for the 2024 Hungarian race.

The traditional design of these trophies has become iconic. The vases are in a neoclassical style, reminiscent of ancient vases. The innovation comes from the annually updated decorations. This year, the choice is a special pattern created by master painters.

The decoration of the Formula 1 trophy is based on a Far Eastern Herend pattern. This unique pattern is called the "Imperial Peony" (Pivoine imperiale), featuring a stylized green rose with plant tendrils and leaves. The body of the trophies has a beige base colour. The silhouette of the Hungaroring, referring to the Hungarian Grand Prix, is placed on the trophies.

For the constructors' Herend decorative plate, the craftsmanship is further enhanced by a pierced edge, a special Herend porcelain technique. The pierced edge features the red-white-green colors of the Hungarian flag, reflecting Hungary and the unique nature of Herend porcelain.

The trophies are decorated with real 18-carat matte gold. The creation of the trophies took about six months. Each Herend porcelain trophy is a unique masterpiece, made exclusively for the 2024 Hungarian race, from the first touch of the material to the final brushstroke. Whoever possesses it owns a genuine masterpiece in a single example! Winning a Herend Trophy in Formula 1 has become a prestigious achievement.

Of course, both the painted decoration and the vase shape are crafted using artisanal techniques, showcasing the talent of the Herend artisans.
