Lladró Porcelain Figurine: "Cherish Me" (Maternal Love)

This is a fine porcelain figurine produced by the renowned Spanish manufacturer Lladró, likely the piece entitled 'Cherish Me' or a similar 'Maternal Love' themed design. The figurine depicts a kneeling young woman in a tender interaction with a small infant. It is crafted from high-glaze porcelain, featuring the signature muted, pastel palette characteristic of the brand, including soft lavender-blue for the skirt, a creamy white bodice with a dusty pink ruffled off-the-shoulder neckline, and beige-toned hair. The woman's hair is styled in a low ponytail with a visible tie. The infant is wearing a simple white diaper. The craftsmanship displays the elongated, elegant proportions and delicate facial features typical of Lladró's late 20th-century aesthetic (circa 1980s-1990s). The piece appears to be in excellent condition with a uniform high-gloss finish, no visible cracks, chips, or crazing, and maintains crisp sculptural details in the fingers and folds of the dress. The construction is hollow-cast porcelain with the characteristic air-hole usually located on the underside of the base, where the official blue tulip maker's mark and sculptor's initials would typically be located.
