According to the Hungarian Ethnographic Lexicon, the héréss is one of the final acts of the wedding: that is, the bride's wedding party's visit to the groom's house. This took place on the second day of the wedding, which lasted several days, as its purpose was to see the bride who had been taken away from the house and had become a bride. ; The joking customs often took place in a mischievous mood during and after the entire wedding. This is also copied by the héréss vessels, which depict the woman and the man naked. The Ethnographic Museum in Budapest keeps three such jars, which were brought there from Nemesradnót in 1931. ; They were presumably made in Rimaszombat or Fazekaszsaluzsány, collected from a certain Jenő Endler. ; The other human-headed earthenware jug is round in shape with a narrow bottom, on this is an armchair, on which a naked young couple sits, the man is wearing a bowler hat, has a beard, and is holding his genitals with his right hand. The jug has a handle, and is glazed in colors on the outside: brown, green, yellow and colorless. The clay is yellowish-white, with a stamped pattern on the handle, and a finger print underneath. ; The Lidike Pihenőház has rethought the custom, and based on photographs, has had ceramic artist Danka Bakšová in Fazekassaluzsány make the 2018 versions of the urinating vessels.
