Buddy the Caring Puppy is a cute porcelain creation from Lovely World, a collection dedicated to love, the most universal of all emotions by Lladro.
An ancient Oriental legend tells a story about people who are fated to meet because they are connected by an invisible red thread. No matter the time or distance separating them, this thread ties them together and is never broken.
This collection is inspired by that connection that joins people together regardless of the walls, frontiers or hardships placed between them. These little animals embody different ways of expressing love: intuition, generosity, protection, loyalty… Buddy - Caring Puppy represents the more tender-hearted and sweet side of love. The connection, that red thread, is symbolized by a deep red heart that stands out against the white porcelain with which the piece is modelled.

About Lladro
In 1953 Juan, José and Vicente Lladró made their first porcelain creations in a Moorish furnace built in their own home in Almàssera (Valencia). In 1969 their facility in the City of Porcelain (Valencia) was completed and today is still home to the creative process and production of some of the highest artistic and technical quality porcelain in the world. Lladro's production innovations not only in the design and style of the figurines but also in the firing techniques have earned them many acknowledgements and awards.
In the 1990's Lladro was awarded the Príncipe Felipe awards for Internationalization, Competitiveness and Renown Brand Management. Lladro figurines and sculptures have collectors around the world and they can also be seen in the Hermitage Museum of Saint Petersburg, the Valencia Pavilion in the Universal Show of Seville, as well as in the Museum of Modern Art of Santo Domingo.
