Preludio porcelain figurine, girl with cello

Porcelain figure depicting a girl with the cello. She is wearing an elegant ice green dress, with a delicate skirt in soft tulle leaves and a bustier with a wide neckline on the back and a butterfly print. The hair is loose on the shoulders, with a butterfly-shaped bow that gathers the most unruly locks at the nape of the neck. He holds a score in his hand and embraces his cello, perhaps meditating on the right interpretation to give to this new melody.    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.
