LLADR PORCELAIN FIGURINE - "PARTICIPANDO DE LA ILUSIN" / "A FRIEND FOR LIFE", No. 07685, SMALL SEATED PUPPY, WITH ORIGINAL BOX The fifteenth Lladr piece from this estate and the smallest figurine in the group. A small seated puppy, modeled as a curly-coated poodle or terrier type, sits upright on a pale green oval base with its head tipped and turned to one side and its ears hanging loose, painted in soft white with pale gray shading over the ears, topknot, and hindquarters and tiny dark eyes and nose. Glossy glaze, restrained color, and a charming small-shelf presence. It comes with its original dark blue octagonal Lladr carton with gold line decoration, the LLADR logo, and a printed end panel showing a gold line drawing of the puppy with the letter B, the number 07685, the titles "Participando de la ilusin" and "A friend for life", and barcode 7 37859 07685 5, with the original packing insert. Approximately 3.5 inches tall. The base of the figurine was never photographed, so no backstamp is quoted and no mark is claimed. Sold as one figurine with its original box. Description Lladr hand-painted glazed porcelain figurine of a small puppy seated upright on its haunches, front legs straight, head tilted and turned to one side, with long soft ears hanging down beside the face and a curly topknot and shoulder coat modeled in soft tufts. Painted white overall with pale warm gray shading over the topknot, the ears, the shoulders, and the hindquarters, with small dark painted eyes and nose; the rear view shows the fluffy tail and rump tufts in the same gray-white wash. Shallow oval base glazed pale green with a soft yellow-cream tint at the front edge, the same pale palette Lladr used across its small animal subjects. The underside of the base was not photographed in this batch, so no maker mark, model number, DAISA line, or factory character can be quoted and none is claimed. The identification of this piece rests on the printed box label alone. Original box included, a dark blue octagonal Lladr carton printed with fine gold line decoration and the LLADR bell-flower logo, with a printed end panel carrying a gold line drawing of this exact puppy, the letter B, the number 07685, the Spanish title "Participando de la ilusin", the English title "A friend for life", and barcode 7 37859 07685 5; the interior retains its fitted card and foam packing with the figure seated in the cavity. Approximately 3.5 inches tall per the tape-measure photograph, in which the figure is laid on its side on the carpet with the tape beside it rather than measured standing, so the height is a close estimate only. No base diameter is claimed. Bidders should verify all dimensions from the photographs.
