The Gallery's Perspective
There’s a quiet dignity to the way this turtle seems to glide—wings (or flippers) outstretched, neck extended, as if caught in a single confident stroke through water. The pristine white porcelain emphasizes the delicately modeled skin and scale pattern: you can see the subtle raised texture across the head, flippers, and undercarriage that gives the creature a lifelike presence without realism becoming literal. Against that soft matte field, the copper-lustered shell provides a warm, reflective counterpoint; its gleam catches the light and lends the figure a surprising elegance that feels almost ceremonial. The included slim white stand lifts the form off the surface and reinforces the impression of forward motion, making the sculpture feel airy and animated in three-dimensional space. It’s a piece that combines restraint and a single bright flourish of color—calm, graceful, and quietly captivating in a room that appreciates thoughtful, sculptural detail.
The Artwork
About Sea Turtle I (white - copper) Sculpture
This porcelain creation portrays this extraordinary creature, a symbol of survival, slow and deliberate when it walks on the sand, yet surprisingly quick and elegant when swimming in the sea. This sea turtle is made in white porcelain. Its shell has been decorated with copper luster which produces an attractive contrast with the white. It comes with a white metal support for its placement.

Lladro was founded in 1953 when Juan, Jose, and Vicente, three brothers born of local farmers and endowed with great artistic talent, formed a small family company in the Valencian village of Almacera, Spain. Since then, Lladro has undergone an amazing metamorphosis from an artisan workshop to a huge firm of international scope enjoying continual growth. The company management has remained in the hands of the Lladro family, the owners of the firm, since its inception.
The creative team started out by adapting styles from past eras, but it was not long before certain characteristics appeared that would soon shape what was to become the unique Lladro style.
