The three wise men which were first depicted by the brand in 1969 featured in High Porcelain, Lladró's maximum artistic category, with an attractive decoration. The Lladró brothers Juan, José and Vicente presented the original pieces as a gift to Pope Paul VI when they visited the Vatican in 1969. Soon afterwards, man stepped on the moon for the first time and the Pope in turn gave a king to each one of the three astronauts from Apollo 11 and spoke to them about the mission in which another three men were guided by a star to take a message to the entire Humanity.
Lladró is the leader in luxury porcelain since 1953 and have developed proprietary processes that resulted in a wide range of products and styles that is unparalleled in the world of porcelain. The brand still makes every piece in their workshop in Valencia, Spain.
