Lladró Horse Sculpture. Matte Black

DESCRIPTION

Matte black porcelain sculpture inspired by a horse, part of the Origami collection.

Origami Horse. Geometry in motion.

In this piece, we bring together two artistic languages: the ancient Japanese art of origami and the handcrafted tradition of porcelain. From that connection comes this matte black porcelain horse, modeled with faceted volumes that echo the language of folded paper. A contemporary reinterpretation of the animal world through geometry.

The horse, a universal symbol of freedom, strength, and elegance, takes on a new form here refined, bold and expressive. We aimed to capture its movement mid-stride, with one leg lifted and its head held high, conveying energy and balance. The matte black finish emphasizes the edges of its anatomy, enhancing the play of light and shadow across its surface.

Each piece is entirely handcrafted in our workshops in Valencia, where traditional porcelain making techniques coexist with a focus on contemporary design. From the initial modeling to the kiln firing, this horse reflects our commitment to preserving artisanal expertise while exploring new creative directions.

Horse is part of the Origami collection, a series of creations that reinterpret the animal world through abstraction, with an aesthetic inspired by graphic design and today’s visual languages.
