Hermes is a fashion house from Paris that began in 1837 with a specialty in leather. Since that time they have expanded into luxury goods, lfestyle accessories and home goods. The Toucan pattern was produced for Hermes china sets from 1991 - 2017. The fine china is porcelain with printed decoration. The large teapot at auction sells for an average of $300 and as high as $500. The oversized cup and saucers sell for $120 - $150 each at auction. The estimate is for all the pieces combined and it is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of matches. Retail asking prices may be higher and vary.
