Product Description
This piece is called Elegance and doesn't she live up to her name? The Elegance figurine is part of the Nao Figurines by Lladro collection, and is in the Youth series. Isn't this the perfect piece to serve as a tribute to that woman you know who simply exudes grace and charm? True elegance has nothing whatever to do with money, but in the way one presents his or her self to the world. A plain white, high necked gown, with the only decoration a border of flowers at the hem. A simple blue bracelet worn high on the arm. No other jewelry or ornamentation is necessary. Hair in a graceful upsweep. Elegance is the only word that will do. This porcelain figurine measures 12.5 inches tall and 4 inches wide. All Nao Porcelain Figurines are handcrafted in Valencia, Spain at the Lladro porcelain factory. Each figurine comes with a Nao Porcelain gift box and certificate of authenticity.More from this collection
About The Collection
NAO Master artists begin with a sketch inspired by life's special moments, and transform it into a clay figurine that gives their own personal touch. The sculpture is reproduced in a complex series of molds that are filled with Lladro's remarkable porcelain, then reassembled and hand-painted before being glazed and fired at high temperatures for 24 hours or more. Prior to being fired, the artists make a small hole in the base of the piece to prevent cracking; often a small piece of porcelain stays inside the sculpture, creating the signature rattle known as the "Lladro Bell." The composition of the porcelain and glaze are a closely-guarded Lladro family secret.
The NAO by Lladro porcelain collection includes almost three hundred figurines, and new pieces are added every year. The NAO designers' and artists' creativity is demonstrated in each handmade figure, to be shared by collectors worldwide.
We regret that we are unable to provide assistance in valuing discontinued NAO porcelain figurines. We recommend that you contact an appraiser or antique store for help in determining current market values for NAO porcelain figurines.
