High Porcelain is an aesthetic philosophy in itself. The creations in this category showcase the artistic, creative and technical prowess of Lladró’s artists. These high quality porcelain creations have their own unique style and spectrum of colours. Their size, complex composition and meticulous decoration make these pieces into authentic examples of the heights Lladró is capable of achieving in porcelain.
Its opulent decoration makes this sculpture truly noteworthy. Every element from the majestic crown to the ornate sari and lavish jewellery, as well as the peacock’s feathers, painted by hand one by one, and the flowers in the garland and on the peacock’s crest, handmade petal by petal, are treated with the utmost delicacy.
Saraswati sits on a gigantic lotus flower, preaching her message that “learning is the path to freedom”. For this reason, many Hindus believe that if they name their daughters after her, they will get on at school. In this creation, Lladró’s artists convey the profound spirituality of a goddess who is worshipped in schools in India because she stands for the “power of words” and the magic of language. Saraswati is a limited edition of 720 units.

Equally worth mentioning is the bright colouring. Some of the colours were created specifically for this creation, including the pistachio tone used in the garland, the turquoise for the peacock and the orange and green for the sari. Furthermore, the piece also showcases a number of different decorative techniques, highlighted in the profusion of golden lustre in both matte and glazed finishes.
