Founded in 1950 by the brothers Juan, Jose and Vincent Lladro, for more than 60 years of its existence, the Lladro brand has gained fame as an innovative leader in the field of porcelain casting. All sculptures are made by hand and by their artistic properties have no competitors in the world. Every step in creating a figurine, from a sketch to firing in a Moorish furnace, is done exclusively by professionals who know their job. The final result of the work done is unique figurines, characterized by a variety of topics and ideas - nature, human relations, religion, historical themes.
There are no "flashy" colors characteristic of the classical European tradition. The Lladro brothers were inspired by the muffled tones of the winter landscapes of Spain, a quivering, vibrant palette of paintings by Spanish artists Sorolla and Benlier. These impressions formed the basis for the coloristic sounds of gray, beige-brown colors, an endless palette of pastel shades that perfectly match the delicacy and purity of porcelain. Artists, designers and sculptors of world renown such as Jaime Ayon, Bodo Sperline and others are involved in the work on the collections.
Many figures are made in limited series and exist in the world in only a few copies. Lladro's works are stored in the collections of the best museums in the world - in the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, the Royal Museum of Art and History in Brussels, the International Museum of Ceramics in Faenza, the National Museum of Ceramics in Valencia and others.
During the existence of the company, more than 5000 items were invented and released. All figures are produced in small quantities - on average, from 200 to several thousand pieces. Each figure has its own serial number and over the years it is becoming more expensive due to rarity, fragility and its originality.
Juan Llardo, the founder and president of the brand, commented on the opening of a new boutique: “More than 60 years ago we started producing porcelain in the backyard of our house, and today we have become one of the leading brands in the world, known primarily for its high quality and creative originality of products. "The Middle East is a developing market for us, and we are pleased to announce our presence here today. In Dubai, which receives customers from all over the world, we will certainly be able to satisfy the aesthetic needs of all connoisseurs of china."
As a sign of respect for the history and culture of the Arab world, Lladro presented the unique Falcon product at the opening ceremony, referring us to the traditions of falconry, which will be presented in a limited edition only in the Middle East. This masterpiece surprisingly accurately reproduces the habits of a predator, who is called the "king of the birds." At Lladro we are convinced that any product of the company is a unique gift for any occasion, which can elegantly express gratitude, admiration, and emphasize the solemnity of the moment.
Angeles Lladro, daughter of Juan Lladro, the eldest of the three founding brothers of Lladro, believes that graceful porcelain figurines are not only beautiful, but also full of positive energy: “Look how delicate, delicate work these delicate creations have. It's so calm, natural tonality of colors. So carefully think through each petal, skillfully write figures for many hours only with love. Themes for creating figures, scenes and compositions are based on wonderful feelings and emotions: nature, art, literature ra, music, religion, and daily life filled with love. " These products will decorate not only at home, but also life, existing in harmony with the person.
Members of the Lyadro family are required to personally participate in the creation of collections - they discuss and select sketches, issue a main verdict, which of the finished works are worthy of being presented in boutiques. Today, the boutiques of the network are open in all major cities of the world, including New York, Los Angeles, Madrid, Beijing, Hong Kong, Singapore and many others. In addition, the products are presented in more than 1000 department stores in 120 countries.
