I’ve only recently fallen in love with Lladró figurines, and I must admit some of the scenes are so touching, so peaceful, so irresistibly sweet. The “children with animals” pieces are among my absolute favourites, and if you know this range, I’m sure you understand why. They feel innocent, heartfelt, beautifully crafted… little moments that instantly bring back memories and emotions you didn’t realise you missed.

This figurine is no exception. A little girl chatting on the phone with her loyal dog by her side — pure tenderness captured in porcelain.

Brand: Lladró 5466 (Made in Spain)
Material: Porcelain
Condition: Perfect — no cracks, chips, or visible damage. Please refer to the photos for full details.
Note: Collectable piece. Designed by Juan Huerta in 1988.

Do you have a suitable ‘home’ for your little vintage treasures?

If not, this trinket box is an absolute must. 

Featuring a gorgeous stained-glass lid adorned with a delicate pink rose, rich red velvet lining in beautiful condition, and charming lion-shaped legs, it truly doesn’t get much better than this. A perfect statement piece for your dressing table — and a stylish, romantic place to store your jewellery.

Condition: This piece has been used, but the wear only adds to its vintage charm. The velvet lining is in unusually good condition, with no stains or visible imperfections. Please refer to the photos for full details.

Beautiful. Elegant. Immaculate. The perfect swan.

Can you imagine having such a beautiful piece on your table during afternoon tea? It instantly elevates the moment — refined, special, a little magical. And if you’d prefer not to use such a delicate vintage treasure, it will look stunning wherever you choose to display it. A true conversation starter either way.

Educative Window: Belleek is a renowned Irish porcelain manufacturer, famous for its Parian porcelain—thin, translucent, and beautifully luminous. Newer pieces do not hold the same appeal or value as these older marks, especially when they survive in such extraordinary condition. Belleek themselves list this design as a creamer, despite there being no known matching sugar bowl, making it a quirky little collector’s gem.

Material: Parian porcelain (Belleek’s signature luminous porcelain)
Colour: White/cream with gold rim, gold decoration around the neck, grey-toned head and orange beak
Size: Please refer to the last photo
Condition: Immaculate inside and out — no marks, cracks or chips. Please refer to photos for full details.
Mark: 5th Belleek mark (1955–1965)

A beautiful matching pair of porcelain vases featuring an oval Japanese scene: a graceful geisha with a traditional parasol, a little wooden bird feeder, distant mountains, and blossoming branches framing the moment. A breathtaking piece of Japan — captured in gold.

Both vases are identical: same size, same motif, same level of detail.

Material: Porcelain with gold decoration (likely 24k gold)
Colour: White base with gold detailing and shades of orange, yellow, blue, and black
Size: Please refer to the last photo
Condition: Great vintage condition — no chips, cracks, or major marks. Please refer to photos.
Note: Finding two matching vases in this condition is more special than finding one — a beautiful pair to display together.

An Australian cockatoo… brought to life in the Czech Republic.

This stunning Royal Dux cockatoo is one of those pieces that instantly transforms a room. Fun, full of personality, beautifully detailed and wonderfully tall at 40cm, it’s the kind of décor that becomes a talking point the second someone walks in. The soft blush-pink feathers add a gentle charm, while the classic Royal Dux craftsmanship makes it a true collectible.

If you love statement figurines, love birds, love Czech porcelain artistry — or simply love owning pieces that feel alive — this beauty will make you smile every time you look at it.

Interesting fact: I have two more of these cockatoos sitting on my fireplace ledge — and I love them so much that for now, they’re not flying anywhere!

Brand: Royal Dux Bohemia
Material: Porcelain
Height: 40cm (yes she is a large bird!)
Colour: White with soft pink detailing (hand painted)
Condition: Excellent vintage condition — no cracks, chips, or visible damage. Please refer to the photos for full details.
Note: A standout piece for collectors of Royal Dux, animal figurines, or unique interior décor.

Czech Made…

When it comes to porcelain and glass — especially hand-blown glass — the Czech Republic should never be overlooked. Czech glassmaking has a long, respected tradition, and pieces like this are a beautiful reminder of that heritage.

Interesting fact: Spatter (or splatter) glass is created by rolling hot smooth glass into coloured fragments, then shaping it by blowing. Sometimes an additional translucent layer is added over the colourful spatters, giving the surface depth and a wonderfully textured look.

Material: Glass
Colour: Multicoloured
Height: Please refer to the last photo (as shown, it’s a smaller vase)
Condition: Perfect — no visible marks, chips, or cracks. Please refer to photos for all details.
Note: Attributed to the Franz Welz factory, early 1900s (circa 1890s–1920), from the Harlequin Honeycomb pattern collection.

A little Inuit child hugging a polar bear cub was the very first Lladró piece I ever purchased — and I loved it so much that I couldn’t resist expanding the scene. These two sitting polar bears were the perfect addition: one with its paw lifted, and the other sitting calmly with both paws down.

The ballerinas, geishas, and especially the “children with animals” range are among my absolute Lladró favourites. If you know this collection, you’ll understand why — each piece is innocent, heartfelt, and beautifuly crafted. And if you’d like to curate your own tiny winter wonderland, the little Inuit child hugging a polar bear cub pairs beautifully with these two.

Brand: Lladró (Made in Spain)
Material: Porcelain
Condition: Perfect — no cracks, chips, or visible damage. Please refer to photos for full details.
Note: Collectable pieces. Please be aware that this listing does not include the Inuit child figurine — that piece is sold separately.

I’ve only recently fallen in love with Lladró figurines, and this little Inuit child hugging a polar bear cub was the very first piece I ever bought. I actually managed to find two — though heartbreakingly, one arrived broken in transit (and trust me, you never want to see these beautiful vintage pieces shattered). 

The ballerinas, geishas, and “children with animals” pieces are among my absolute favourites. And if you’d like to create a little snowy scene of your own, I also have two irresistibly cute polar bear figurines that pair perfectly with this piece.

Brand: Lladró (Made in Spain)
Material: Porcelain
Condition: Perfect — no cracks, chips, or visible damage. Please refer to photos for full details.
Note: Collectable piece. Does not come with the two bears figures, those are sold separately.

I adore glass and porcelain and hand-blown vases are my absolute favourite. Not the mass-produced pieces you see everywhere, but true works of art. This Strathearn vase is exactly that: the perfect size, the perfect colour, the perfect craftsmanship. Robust, weighty, beautifully shaped… an absolute beauty.

If you’re looking for a statement vase that stands out and brings a burst of colour and sunshine into your home, this piece will make you happy.

Brand: Strathearn (likely made in Scotland)
Material: Hand-blown glass
Height: 19 cm (please allow for small discrepancy), size shown on the last photo
Colours: Yellow and brown with swirls of orange, blue, and other tones
Condition: Great vintage condition — no chips but a thin scratch at the bottom part. Please refer to photos.

I love home accessories inspired by Chinese and Japanese culture. They’re wonderfully unique — the skill, the materials, the hand-painting, the colours… always breathtaking. Pieces like this elevate any home and add a touch of magic to your interior.

This little vase is no exception. Just look at the colours, the detail… A tiny beauty, isn’t she?

Educative window: Cloisonné is an ancient enamel technique where thin metal wires are used to form small compartments (called cloisons), which are then filled with enamel and fired to achieve a glossy, detailed, and vibrant design. The result? A jewel-like piece with raised metal outlines and shimmering colour.

Size: 10 cm (small!), please refer to the last photo
Material: Cloisonné enamel
Colours: A beautiful mix — mainly gold, green, and pink
Condition: In keeping with its vintage age. No chips or cracks; only gentle surface wear that adds to its charm. Please refer to the photos.
Note: Collectable piece
