Lot 120: Lladró Anniversary Waltz Porcelain Figurine Number 1372
A Spanish polychrome glazed porcelain figurine depicting a couple in a formal dance pose. The male figure is modelled in a grey tailcoat and light grey trousers, while the female figure wears a pale pink floor-length gown detailed with applied porcelain roses at the shoulders and waist. Both figures are depicted wearing white gloves. The underside of the base features a blue printed mark consisting of a bell-shaped symbol above the word LLADRO, followed by HAND MADE IN SPAIN and a copyright notice DAISA 1978. Several incised marks are present on the unglazed base, including C-17 MY, a character resembling a capital H, and a symbol resembling a stylized G. There is also a small impressed tulip-shaped mark. The design corresponds to model number 1372, known as Anniversary Waltz or Anniversary Dance.
Condition report:
