Description

Lladro- Boy Kissing


Issue Year: 1974
Retirement Year: 1998
Sculptor: Fulgencio García Size: 7¾x3½"


Every Lladró piece of work is the result of a laborious artistic process. Sculptors follow their own inspiration but also perform, if the work requires it, a meticulous process of research and documentation. This is often the case with pieces or collections that reflect other cultures.


Lladró creates all its figurines in the City of Porcelain, located in Tavernes Blanques (Valencia). The first buildings were opened in 1969 and with the company’s global expansion they were enlarged to reach 100,000 sq. feet.

The City of Porcelain is a large area designed for artistic creation, with bright studios and workshops, within a large complex that also has sports facilities and spacious gardens.

The City of Porcelain is an open space for all those wishing to visit, thanks to a visitor’s program which allows you to watch artisans working on site and to visit the Lladró Museum. Every year over 15,000 lovers of Lladró porcelain visit the complex.
