Lladro is a handmade porcelain from Spain which only dates back to the mid 1950s, but it's warmth with soft colors and sensitivity of detail in each design has made it a very sought after collectible. In 1974, Lladro issued this lovely figurine of a Mother Duck and her babies which measures 2-1/2" x 3-3/4". The Mother watches over her four baby ducks as they poke their heads out of a beige woven basket which is draped with a pale blue-grey cover. The underside of base is marked in blue: Lladro with logo, hand-made in Spain. It would appear the artist's initials are impressed into base. No cracks or chips - MINT. Sorry not in original box.
