  Every stage of the creation process of a Lladró figurine is equally important, because even the smallest mistake during any of the individual procedures can produce a fatal flaw. But if there is one very special and all - important moment - the moment on which everything else hinges - it is the origin of the piece itself. Where does the idea for a new figure come from? What sources of inspiration do Lladró artists use? What is the secret to creating such an extensive, varied, and yet coherent range of porcelains? The answer to these questions lies in the group of creative collaborators who work in Porcelain City, and the close ties that exist between this group and the Lladró family. Ever since the three founders decided to pool their talents back in the 1940s, the relationship they have maintained with their collaborators has been very close, and very fruitful. The Lladró brothers have played the master to men of mastery, they have been mentors to disciples who have become inspired artists, and they have guided the steps of many talented people who have joined the staff. Everyone shares the same sources of inspiration, the same artistic concerns, the same means of expression. Lladró creations are born in this inspiring atmosphere existing in Porcelain City, Spain. All collaborators are consummate artists, draftsmen and sculptors who apply their extraordinary powers of imagination, sensitivity and technical mastery at each step of the way. Moreover, they share the Lladró family's concern for excellence in workmanship. Their natural curiosity urges them to continue the search for new themes, new creative challenges, every new day. The starting point for the creation of a Lladró figurine is an idea - an idea whose inspiration may be taken from the history of art, from nature, or from day-to-day life. Many themes can be turned into a new figurine. With their special feel for art, the Lladró family inspires their sculptors and collaborators to transform a bare idea into a fine work of art in porcelain. Taking that initial idea, the sculptor makes a mockup in clay or plasticine. |
