Lladro A World of Love Collectible Fig

Every Lladro piece of work is the result of a laborious artistic process. Each Lladro creation begins with an artistic inspiration. The sculptor then makes the first sketch of the new figure in clay, which is examined and approved by the Creativity Committee, made up by many members, one of whom comes from the Lladro family. The sketch, in clay, is reproduced in plaster to provide the first mold, which will in turn become the definitive mold for the porcelain figurine. Once the crafting process finishes, the sculpture goes through several quality controls. Most pieces make their way successfully to the end of the process, and those that do not comply with Lladro's quality standards are destroyed. This Lladro Porcelain "A World of Love", created for UNICEF is handmade in Spain following a meticulous artisan process used for over six decades. The highly talented Lladro artisans use the world's finest porcelain to produce stunning creations that move the hearts of thousands of people around the world. This figurine really is a beautiful piece and would look good in any setting. It is a most imposing with such elegance and style. It has the Lladro tulip/emblem on the base symbolizing its authenticity.Fine Porcelain Collectible Figurine Retired Handmade in SpainSculptor: Joan CoderchIssued in 1996 and retired in 1999Spanish Name: Un Mundo de AmorMeasures:10.25" Height x 5.00" WidthShipping Note: Shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, PO Boxes, and APO addresses is not available for this item Warranty: 90 Day Woot Limited Warranty
