Porcelain creation inspired by the Snake, one of the 12 signs in the Chinese zodiac.

Baby Snake belongs to the Baby Animals collection, a charming fun version of the twelve signs of the Chinese zodiac. The animals which have the power to shape the character and even the fate of people born under their influence are portrayed from a more child-like optic. These depictions bring us closer to the age-old tradition of Chinese culture, with all its mystery and fascination, in a highly personal way.

Baby Snake is notable for the expressive face and the intensity of its gaze. The twisted body of the snake and the scales of its skin showcase the sculptural work and highly detailed ornamentation. White was chosen for the decoration, except for the large eyes which are painted a deep black color to accentuate the expressiveness. Another noteworthy detail is that the piece alternates glazed scales with others in a matte finish, which is achieved by softly eliminating the glaze with a small sponge. This application of little touches makes each Baby Snake unique and unrepeatable.

In China, people born under the sign of the Snake (1977, 1989, 2001, 2013, 2025) are believed to be very intuitive, intelligent, materialist, courageous and communicative. The Chinese zodiac, also known as Sheng Xiao, is an integral part of Chinese culture. This system of astrology is based on a twelve-year cycle, each one represented by an animal with its own symbolism and characteristics.

Porcelain creation inspired by the Dragon, one of the 12 signs in the Chinese zodiac.

Baby Dragon is the opening piece in the Baby Animals collection, a version of the 12 animals in the Chinese zodiac created from a more naïve, tender-hearted, and endearing perspective. Worth underscoring in this interpretation of the only mythological animal in the Chinese zodiac is the sculptural and ornamental work, which recreates the morphology and scales of the dragon’s skin with high precision. White was chosen for the whole decoration, with the sole exception of the eyes which are painted a deep black color in order to heighten the expressiveness. Another interesting feature is that the piece alternates areas of glazed and matte scales, an effect achieved by eliminating the glaze with a small soft sponge. This application of a very gestural technique with tiny strokes means that each Baby Dragon creation has a special unique finish. In China, people born under the sign of the Dragon (1976, 1988, 2000, 2012, 2024) are called dragon babies and are believed to be imaginative, kind, vital and energetic.

Porcelain creation portraying a special vision of Mickey Mouse, one of the best-loved characters from the Disney factory.

Mickey Total Black affords an unexpected vision of one of the most significant characters in popular culture. Mickey Mouse, the world’s most famous mouse, was the first and best known of the many creations in the Disney universe. Ever since, he has become a pop icon, one of the most recognizable and best-loved figures by the public.

In this version, Mickey is faithfully depicted but with a bold aesthetic treatment. It plays with the effects produced by the combination of the matte black color of the head, trousers, and faceted base with the glazed finish of the ears and body. The note of color comes in the delicate white porcelain flower, modeled by hand, petal by petal, on Mickey’s chest. This little detail makes Mickey even more charming and adds a touch of humor and sophistication.

Mickey appeared for the first time in short animated cartoons premiered in 1928. Walt Disney himself provided the voice of the little mouse, which quickly became incredibly popular. His adventures with his friends Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto were the foundation on which Disney built a vast media and entertainment empire. Since then, with his big round ears and infectious smile, Mickey Mouse has become one of the world’s most instantly recognizable icons, reproduced millions upon millions of times.

Porcelain sculpture inspired by Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom, tactics, and good counsel.

The daughter of Zeus and Metis, Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom, tactics and good counsel. Believed to be the protectress of the city of Athens, she is also the goddess of war, understood as the fight to achieve justice. Greek mythology, with its legends, gods and heroes, continues to captivate us today. The wealth of its stories and its powerful symbolism are an endless source of inspiration for our artists. Athena comes to life in our workshops thanks to this interpretation in white matte porcelain, decorated with ocher and golden lusters and with metallic whites in an iridescent finish. Accompanying the goddess is her faithful owl, the symbol of wisdom. This bird is portrayed in porcelain in great detail, posing on Athena’s shoulder and also etched in bas relief on the helmet, bracelet and leg guards. In addition, etched on the protective shield is the head of Medusa, the gorgon who turned anyone who looked upon it into stone. Gods depicted through other gods, characters that converge and lives that intersect in order to share with us the culture of Ancient Greece and its fascinating history.
