Elephant - Underwater Sculpture

This new creation joins the Underwater collection, inspired by nature and water, the primeval element that gave rise to all life. It is a demonstration of how art, through the unique expression of porcelain, connects us with nature and celebrates it. Thanks to our artists’ consummate control of sculpture and the decorative techniques developed specifically for these pieces, Underwater offers us an unrivaled vision of the fusion between the animal kingdom and nature.

The perfection of the forms is further enhanced by a pioneering decoration in degraded bluish tones that achieves an almost real effect of immersion in water. The end result, as can be seen in this elephant, is a series of contemporary creations that not only embellish, but also captivate with their magnificent handcrafted elaboration in porcelain and with their message.

Elephant - Underwater is modeled in white matte porcelain, which highlights the texture of the animal’s skin and anatomy. To achieve the water effect of the decoration, the degraded color is applied from bottom upwards and is rounded off with pearlescent lusters.If you love animals and nature, Elephant - Underwater is the ideal creation for you. It also makes the perfect gift for that special someone you wish to surprise with a decorative design out of the ordinary.

An iconic Spanish brand, Lladro is a world leader in the creation of porcelain art. Started by brothers Juan, Jose and Vicente Lladro in 1953, the ceramic figurines were initially inspired by the works of great European manufacturers like Meissen and Sevres. Over time, a unique style was forged, consisting of elongated lines, a revolutionary single-firing method, and soft pastel tones.
