Both gift-givers and discriminating collectors alike will appreciate the quality and attention to detail that signifies each and every Nao sculpture. Nao, part of the Lladro group, is sold in more than 122 countries around the world.Nao porcelain figurines express the joys, tender moments, and important passages of life. Hand-crafted by skilled artisans and hand-painted in soft pastel shades, each Nao sculpture makes a cherished heirloom and is sure to delight the recipient. Girl With Violin, standing approximately 7-1/2 inches tall, shows a girl who appears to be dreamily lost in music, one hand positioning her violin under her chin and the other holding the bow at her side. The girl's long dress and hair bow impart a sense of wholesomeness, making the sculpture especially appropriate for a musically-inclined young woman.
Nao figurines are made in the studios of its renowned parent company, Lladró, in Valencia, Spain. A blend of skilled craftsmanship and state-of-the-art technology goes into each piece, which is kiln-fired for more than 20 hours to ensure a flawless final glaze. The collection of approximately three hundred figurines includes angels, children, pets, mermaids, wedding cake toppers, religious icons, and more. Collectors eagerly await the new arrivals each year. --Ann Bieri Read more
