Lladro 01009117 CHERUB OF OUR LOVE

 



Issue Year: 2017
Sculptor: Ernest Massuet
Size: 36x28 cm
Limited Edition 1500 pieces

The story goes that every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings. This cherub, an adorable depiction of a Cupid inspired by Renaissance angels, has already received his wings, a wonderful example of the modeling and ornamentation of LladrĂ³ artists. Besides the large size, it is also worth underscoring the perfect anatomical reproduction of such a young child. This is further enhanced by the matte porcelain, which brings out every little gesture and fold. As if playing "loves me, loves me not", the little angel is plucking the petals of a flower, one of the brand’s signature elements, which can also be seen in the armlet and in the garland on his head, with over one hundred flowers of different varieties, handmade petal by petal.
