LLADR
Ó

Lladró is a specialist in its field, committed to creating porcelain art pieces that represent and reflect the loves of our lives, whether that is a person, an animal, hobby and/or a vocation. In so doing Lladró pieces tell your story. 

Our service to you is that you can order from the whole Lladró range. Our aim is to have a significant proportion of the Lladró range here to view on our site. However, as there are approximately 14,000 pieces in the catalog (current and historical) so we won’t be showing all the range here. Therefore, if you can’t find a piece on our site can we suggest you identify the item from the Lladró official site: www.lladro.com and then contact us via email, phone or live chat and we will order it in for you. As an authorised Lladró retailer you can have confidence in our retail pricing and our free insurance covered freighting in New Zealand. In addition, we offer great VIP discounts, which we can tailor to reflect your purchasing history once you subscribe to our website. 

Please allow orders from Lladró to take 2 to 3 weeks to get to you. 

We do keep a range of items in stock and these will be dispatched immediately and depending on your location should be with you in 3 to 10 days' time.
