Koala sculpture made of matte black porcelain, decorated with gold luster.

Koala captures to perfection the Boldblack collection’s unique mix of naturalism and leading-edge. The series offers a singular vision of the animal kingdom in creations notable for matching realist and precise modeling with a bicolor black-and-gold decoration. With an unmistakable creative treatment, these designs fit in with the most varied interior styles.

Koala portrays one of the world’s most endearing animals from a surprising new angle. The creation combines the expressiveness and detail of refined sculpture with a highly sophisticated decoration. The matte black porcelain enhances every little detail and contrasts with the golden luster to create a very attractive decorative effect.

The cute koala, one of Australia’s most popular animals, is the closest thing in nature to a teddy bear. But the koala is much more than an adorable little tree-climbing creature. This animal symbolizes the need to take things leisurely and to appreciate life’s small day-to day pleasures. The koala is deeply significant for Australia’s first nations peoples, who believe it to be a symbol of wisdom and adaptation. In their legends it is often depicted as a being with profound insight into its environment and with a heightened sense of community. It is also a totem of conservation and respect for the environment, now turned into an innovative decorative and artistic creation.

Lladro 01009768 Cockatoo vase

 





















Weight 9.92 lb
Finished Gloss, matte and metallic luster
Height (in): 20.079
Width (in): 10.63
Length (in): 9.449
Sculptor José Santaeulalia

White porcelain vase with a sculpture of a cockatoo, both handmade and hand painted.

Cockatoo Vase is yet another example of the grandeur of nature as a source of inspiration for art. The central feature of this vase is a cockatoo, a beautiful bird originally from Australia which is rightly famous for its colorful crest.

In this porcelain interpretation the cockatoo is decorated in a range of mainly bluish and reddish colors applied in degraded tones. These colors are complemented with the iridescent crystal of the head and body and the touches of golden luster, in both matte and glazed, on the legs and beak. All the decoration is applied in fine brushstrokes to achieve a nuanced chromatic effect.

Contrasting with the realist and colorful treatment, the cockatoo is perched on the edge of a refined white vase etched with a geometric pattern. This combination of opposites results in a vase perfect for filling with flowers or as a decorative element in its own right. If you are a lover of nature or if you adore animals, Cockatoo Vase is the perfect decorative accessory for any corner of your home. Whatever your preferred interior style, from the most classic to the most contemporary, the fun light-hearted design of this vase will stand out in any room.
