Product Description
As beautiful as 02001205, but with a slight twist: this figurine wears a sophisticated dress of solid navy blue (no floral border at hem) instead of the white. Her arm bracelet is gold rather than blue, but other than that, this special edition is every bit as wonderful as the original. The Nao Elegance (Special Edition) Figurine from Lladro piece measures 12.25 inches tall and 4 inches wide. Made of fine porcelain at the Lladro Porcelain Factory in Valencia, Spain, she is in the Color Splash division of the Youth series. Handmade, hand painted by expert artisans. Lladro is known around the world for its exquisite porcelain sculptures and this one is no exception. She will come with a Nao Porcelain gift box and a certificate of authenticity. Understated or Color Splash is the only choice you have to make with the Nao Elegance Figurine by Lladro.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.
