Alice in Wonderland porcelain figurine

Porcelain figure depicting Alice, from the book Alice in Wonderland. She wears the iconic light blue dress, with blue balloon sleeves and a white apron like the collar. She wears her short blonde hair tied to the side with a white bow, and points to the clock saying “We have to run! We are late!”, while a white plush bunny leans on her black shoes and seems to show her the way. Note on the collection Every detail of the FIABE collection has been studied based on drawings from different period editions of traditional fairy tales, looking for the elements common to most and translating them into the form seen here. Every object produced by Sibania is absolutely unique both in the creation of each individual piece and in the production technique which is unmatched and which makes it difficult to imitate. These items are entirely modeled and painted by hand in our laboratory in the province of Vicenza (Italy). The clothes are thin sheets of porcelain, on which textures are imprinted. These sheets are cut according to the dress model and then patiently applied to the body of the statue. The hair styles are also handmade from time to time. On the "bisque" terracotta the faces, clothes and accessories are painted with non-toxic colours; the piece finally undergoes a further firing called "third fire". Any further details such as violin strings or wasp stands are applied at this point to the finished piece.
