Product Description
One of nature's true beauties are flowers. Who can deny the appeal and fresh scent of a glorious flower? And in the same vein, who can deny the appeal of a lovely young lady in the first flush of youth and beauty? The Floral Beauty figurine is aptly named. Part of the Nao Figurines collection by Lladro, she measures 14 inches tall and 4 inches wide. All Nao porcelain figurines are handcrafted in Valencia, Spain at the Lladro porcelain factory. Known far and wide for their excellence in porcelain sculptures, the Nao collection is no exception to this reputation. 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.
