Lladro Cleopatra Sculpture. Limited Edition
$17,300.00
This exclusive High Porcelain piece, made in matte porcelain, is a limited edition of 500 units. Worth underscoring is the painstaking ornamentation of the whole sculpture, from the clothing to the throne or the staffs she is holding in her hand. Equally of note is the profuse decoration using notes of glazed and matte gold, combined with a mix of coppery and pearly colors and metallic blue and green effects that give the piece a sense of majesty. Here, Cleopatra appears as the great queen she was, enhanced by the neme, the characteristic striped blue and gold headcloth worn by the pharaohs. This magnificent matte porcelain work exemplifies the mastery and know-how of Lladró artists
