Sculptor Raul Rubio

Japanese Hina Dolls, delicately made in in porcelain, pay homage to the traditions and cultural wealth of Japan.

They were emperors during the Heian period, a time of peace and tranquility. A time of samurais, of poetry and art, in which the emperor and empress upheld traditions and behaved with courage, wisdom and kindness. With the passing of the years the figure of the emperors became a symbol of fortune and fulfilment, and for that reason during the popular Hina Matsuri festival held every year in March, newborn baby girls receive a gift of Hina Dolls, an emperor and an empress, to wish them a happy and prosperous life. This limited edition of 500 units, made in glazed porcelain, is notable for a decoration that conveys a sense of serenity thanks to the combination of warm earthy tones like green and terracotta with soft yellow, orange and cream colors. Equally noteworthy is the faithfulness and detail in the exact number of folds in the kimonos, the accessories and the decoration of the faces, replicating the costumes worn in the imperial court of the time.

Lladro 01050027 Little devil cat

 
























Limited Series of 1500 units
Weight 3.75 lb
Finished Gloss and gold luster
Height (in): 10.236
Width (in): 7.874
Length (in): 6.299
Designer Javier Calleja
Sculptor Eva Maria Cuerva

Porcelain sculpture created by artist Javier Calleja for the contemporary art platform, Art Editions.

Little Devil Cat is one of the three characters in You Choose One, a work with which Javier Calleja makes us think about the voice of conscience, about that “Jiminy Cricket” and, on this occasion, about the little devil we all have inside us. With a cat’s body, bat wings, little horns, and a pointed tail, more than scaring the life out of us, we will probably want to take this little devil home. His yellow glass eyes give him a highly personal character while the handcrafted elaboration makes each cat unique. Is painted a warm black with a gloss finish, a color created specifically for Javier Calleja and our in-house team of decoration artists who have achieved the desired tone by developing a reddish black using a special formula. The apparent outer simplicity of Little Devil Cat hides a highly complex process of reproduction in porcelain. The large size of the head and the structure of the wings posed a significant technical challenge, especially during the firing in the kiln where, like all LladrĂ³ creations, the piece undergoes a reduction of about 15% in size. To ensure that this reduction is successful and that the piece maintains its proportions calls for meticulous prior research and experimentation and consummate control over porcelain. The result is a unique work of art signed by one of the world’s most sought-after contemporary artists. No matter how devilish he may be, or perhaps precisely because of it, you are bound to fall in love with this little imp.

Porcelain sculpture created by the artist Jade Purple Brown for The Guest collection.

Jade Purple Brown is one of the prestigious designers bringing her vision to the iconic The Guest. Since its creation by Jaime Hayon, The Guest has become a character of a thousand faces, interpreted by the most contemporary international creatives.

Purple, a talented New York-based artist and illustrator, joins this big family with the first female The Guest. Her style is characterized by an imagery that places women the center and a pop aesthetic. In this creation, full of color and strength, Purple speaks of empowerment and awareness. A piece that aspires to be a form of activism, challenging stereotypes and harnessing the power of design to give women a voice. A tribute to femininity in the form of a limited edition of 300 pieces.

The artist has used a chromatic palette of saturated tones that convey energy and optimism. The design features spontaneous and expressive strokes, full of rhythm. At the center of the piece, the profiles of two faces appear, facing each other, about to kiss, symbolizing love and sisterhood. The butterfly, another recurring symbol, appears several times on the glasses, lips, and the back of the head. An inspiring homage to the strength of women, showing them as brave, determined, and full of joy.
