Description Lladr porcelain plaque or figural piece in the form of an unrolled parchment scroll, curled at the top and rolled at the bottom, standing upright on the rolled base. A white dove with folded wings perches on the upper left edge of the scroll, modeled fully in the round with the head and tail extending past the scroll edge. A quill pen in gray, lavender, and white rises at an angle behind the right edge of the scroll. A single applied pink rose bud with green leaves and stem is laid across the rolled lower edge. The scroll face is molded in raised ornamental script reading Lladr on the upper line and Society on the lower line, both left unpainted so the lettering reads as texture rather than color. Reverse is plain, smooth, and undecorated glazed white porcelain. The underside carries the blue printed circular Lladr Society backstamp reading LLADR with the bell-flower logo, HAND MADE IN SPAIN, DAISA 1998, and SOCIETY, along with an impressed monogram-style factory mark, a small vent hole, an impressed check-shaped mark, and the impressed code D 27 MY. Original box included, a dark blue Lladr Society carton with a white square LLADR SOCIETY label on the lid, and a side panel printed with a photograph of the piece, the circular Lladr Society logo reading HAND MADE IN SPAIN DAISA 1998, and the label block reading B, 07677, "El arte nos une", "Art Brings Us Together", with the barcode. The inner packing, cellophane sleeve, and a small printed Spanish packing card reading EMBALAJE / P.Z.N. are present, and the inside of the box flap carries a handwritten date that appears to read Aug 1999, which is the consignor's reading of a hand-written note and is not a factory marking. Stands approximately 7 inches tall per the tape-measure photograph. The tape hook rests on the carpet beside the piece rather than hooked on it, and the piece is lying on the carpet in that shot, so the height is a close estimate. Bidders should verify all dimensions from the photographs. Attribution note Lladr is the Spanish porcelain house founded by the brothers Juan, Jos, and Vicente Lladr near Valencia in the 1950s, known for elongated pastel-glazed figures. DAISA is the Lladr group entity that holds the design copyrights, and the DAISA 1998 line in the backstamp is a copyright date for the design rather than necessarily the year this individual piece was produced. The Lladr Society was the company's collector club, and pieces of this kind were issued to members, which is consistent with both the scroll subject and the Society backstamp. The Spanish title El arte nos une translates as art unites us, and the box gives the English title as Art Brings Us Together. The model number 07677 is taken directly from the printed box label. The impressed D 27 MY is a factory code rather than a model number. No representation is made as to secondary-market value, edition size, retirement status, or whether this is a first-quality or second-quality factory piece, and bidders who care about those points should research the model number themselves before bidding. All identification here is read from the marks and box printing visible in these photographs and is offered as the consignor's photo-based opinion and is not guaranteed. Bid on the item as pictured. Condition Used display porcelain in very good condition, sold as-is, and noticeably cleaner than the boxed figurine offered separately in this sale. The piece appears complete in the photographs, with the dove, the quill, the applied rose, the leaves, and the scroll edges all present and no obvious breaks, chips, cracks, or visible re
