"For People Passionate About Spanish Porcelain" |
NAO Catalog - Decorative Items (Non-Figurine)See Also LampsAs in the regular Lladró collection, NAO features a number of decorative items that aren't "figurines" in the sense in which we normally think of figurals. I've even seen a painted earthen tile marked NAO, Made in Spain, though I haven't been able to confirm the identity! I include in this category the various series of figural swan bowls produced in the NAO brand (also listed under the "Birds" category). |

Appears to be same model as core collection #332.13 "Boot." The shoe and boot models listed here on this page have all been found with NAO marks. It is known from an early Weil Ceramics catalog that a total of nine shoe models of various styles were made by the Lladró company, eight of which have been found with both marks.
