Dr. Attila Simon, CEO of Herend Porcelain Manufactory Ltd., said that they brought an extremely rich Herend collection to Rome, in harmony with Italian sophistication and the expectations of the location. “This Herend exhibition further strengthens Hungary’s international image and at the same time well represents the world-leading role of Herend Porcelain Manufactory” – emphasized the CEO.
