The Origami collection expands with a new addition: a white porcelain panther with a glazed finish, decorated with black floral motifs. A piece that combines feline magnetism with the softness of decorative art. The signature faceted language of Origami, inspired by the Japanese art of paper folding, defines its silhouette with pure, angular lines. Black botanical illustrations are drawn across the panther’s body, as if nature were reclaiming its place on the animal’s skin.
Reproducing a creation like this in porcelain, with its many angles and straight lines, poses an added challenge during the firing process. The natural shrinkage that occurs as the piece passes through the kiln affects this type of composition, as even the slightest variation can distort the sharpness of a line or the clarity of an angle. Unlike organic shapes, geometric structures require an extra level of control to ensure balance and precision. These are creations that, beneath their apparent formal simplicity, push the boundaries of handcrafted porcelain.
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.
