Limited edition sculpture of women drinking tea, decorated with handmade gloss finish porcelain flowers.
Lladró figurines often reference a timeless romanticism, an undefined but still extremely familiar world in space and time. This piece reflects all that is good, noble and beautiful in existence. Such is the case with ‘The Tea', which presents us with a tranquil, evocative scene. The key to the realism and beauty of this piece is its mise-en-scene, in which the delicate figures of the protagonists and precise decoration of their surroundings take on significance. Through this High Porcelain limited edition, an essence of an entire era is captured. This piece boasts an approximate of 300 meticulously handmade flowers, some of which form a complex arbour which posed a technical challenge to Lladró experts, particularly in firing. The fans and dresses which the three ladies possess are enhanced with embroidery and hand-painted prints and lace. More than 70 colours have been used for decoration of a piece full of the minute details which transform the entire piece into a masterpiece.
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.
