About Us

Anna Weatherley established her studio in Budapest, Hungary.

The style is a classical free hand painting, but the result is not a “traditional” porcelain pattern. The numbers of designs are based on 17th, 18th century botanical art and are signed by the painters. This method of painting is a “dying art form,” the product of long hours of work on each object. The fine shading, the small brush strokes, the intricate details are result of very time-consuming process. No mass-produced decal design can be compared with these hand painted images.

Her designs are sold to luxury, high-end exclusive retailers in the United States including Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdales, and Scully and Scully.
