Porcelain creation depicting the legendary Princess Scheherazade.
In the heart of ancient Persia, Princess Scheherazade weaves a tapestry of tales that captivate both the mind and the spirit. To escape the fate of her sister, who met a tragic end at the hands of the cruel Sultan Shahryar, Scheherazade volunteers to become his bride. Each night, she spins an enchanting story, leaving her listeners yearning for more and cleverly delaying her execution. From fantastical adventures of genies and brave heroes to lessons of love and betrayal, her narratives explore the depths of human experience. Through her courage and wit, Scheherazade transforms her plight into a powerful legacy, giving life to the timeless collection known as "1001 Arabian Nights," where imagination reigns and hope endures.
This limited edition piece is delicately modelled, depicted reclining among brightly-coloured fabrics and cushions and finely outlined rich ornamentation. The details in golden lustre add a further touch of wealth and vibrancy to the overall composition. A scene conjured in the imagination of true romantic artists who have also envisaged the Orient shrouded in mystery and sensuality. Here the magic of the 1001 Arabian Nights is turned into a fantasy in porcelain able to make us dream.
