"NAO" carries a fascinating history that adds an extra layer of allure to its collectible creations. Originally known as Rosal-Zaphir (1967-1975), the company became part of the renowned Lladró family, and in 1982, it was officially rebranded as NAO. The name "Nao" draws inspiration from the old sailing vessels of Columbus's time, symbolizing a journey back to origins while capturing the spirit of creativity, craftsmanship, and magic. This nautical connection is beautifully represented in the logo, which features an elegant boat.
