Lladró Starling I Figurine

The figurine features a sophisticated blend of matte and gloss porcelain, accented with hand-applied gold and platinum lusters. These metallic finishes are layered to mimic the natural, shifting iridescence of a starling's feathers.

The piece measures approximately 6.7 inches high by 7.5 inches wide. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for styling on bookshelves, console tables, or as a focal point on a mantle where the light can catch the metallic lusters.

Because of the delicate gold and platinum luster finishes, you should avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cloths. A gentle dusting with a soft, dry microfiber cloth is sufficient to maintain the luster and detail of the porcelain.

While this piece is part of Lladró's standard collection, each sculpture is individually handcrafted by artisans under the direction of sculptor Susana Rodriguez. Because of the hand-applied nature of the finishes, slight variations in the luster application are expected and part of the piece's unique character.

The monochromatic design allows the focus to remain entirely on the texture and form of the bird. By relying on the interplay between matte, gloss, and metallic finishes rather than color, the sculpture achieves a sense of depth and movement that feels both modern and timeless.
