The fish scale pattern, a hallmark of Herend porcelain, originated in 1858 when an artist was inspired by a fish scale design on a Chinese plate and applied it to a rooster figurine to mimic feathers. This iconic design, also known as fishnet, is now widely recognized and prized for its distinctive appearance.
