THE
'MIRACLE THAT IS LLADRO BEGAN WITH A DREAM. THE DREAM OF THREE YOUNG SPANISH
BOYS. JUAN, JOSE AND VINCENTE LLADRO.
IN 1951 THEY BUILT THEIR FIRST KILN IN THEIR BACK GARDEN, AND BEGAN BY MAKING
SMALL PORCELAIN FLOWERS FOR DECORATIVE LAMPS.
THERE WAS A GREAT DEMAND FOR THESE ITEMS, AND TWO YEARS LATER, THE THREE BOYS
RESIGNED FROM THEIR FACTORY JOBS. WITH A LOAN OF 2,000 PESETAS FROM A FRIEND
THEY FOUNDED LLADRO PORCELAIN.
NAO IS MADE IN EXACTLY THE SAME WAY AS LLADRO, BUT IS NOT SO INTRICATE, AND IS
USUALLY CREATED BY STUDENTS.
THE REST, AS THEY SAY, IS HISTORY.
All our Lladro and Nao pieces are in perfect
condition
and are well below the current book valuation
