Lladro Retired Figurine "Boy with Yacht" ca 1972-98

Porcelain : Decorative & Figurines

 

Lladró creates all its figurines in the City of Porcelain, located in Tavernes Blanques (Valencia).Every Lladro creation begins with an artistic inspiration which is examined and approved by the Creativity Committee, made up by many members, one of whom comes from the Lladró family. Once the figurine is sculptured (so far smooth) it is it is carved with delicate motifs that will give it its final appearance.

Finally when the piece is ready for production; molds are made and a single mid-size figurine can take as many as 15 to 20 molds and some of the more complex pieces have as many as 300 molds.

This Lladro figurine is called Boy with Yacht and he was sculpted by Salvador Furia. He was introduced in 1972 and retired in 1998.

With a longing gaze in his eyes; our young man holds a sail boat in his hands. He is ready for a day at sea with his sailor collared shirt and cruiser captain’s cap.

Our young man is in mint condition and stands 9” tall.
