Listing is for a LLADRO RARE / COLLECTIBLE / RETIRED 8” GIRL WITH FLOWERS & BASKET OF APPLES - MINT & INCLUDES FREE UPS SHIPPING! Hand made in Spain per the under stamp / bug stamp. No chips…cracks…crazings and the flowers are pristine. Measurements? 8 1/4” tall. Pictures were taken with my iPhone 15 Plus, and were not enhanced or re-formatted.
The $269.50? I had this stunning piece appraised several years ago. Appraisers verbal thoughts? “The figurine appears to be in very good condition with no visible cracks or significant wear. The colors are vibrant and the delicate details of the flowers are well preserved. Has a valuation of $400”.
The skinny? I am the original owner…my wife and I purchased in Spain in 1973 during our honeymoon. Listed simply because we are thinning out our collection of “stuff” as we down-size. Could be sold as new…but it isn’t as we purchased it 50+ years ago. And 50+ years later? Still stunning and mint!
I get nauseous when I see inflated shipping costs on EBAY. Shipping should not be a profit center. Sellers who do not understand this should be publicly tarred and feathered. With this in mind, shipping is FREE via UPS to anywhere in the United States including Alaska and Hawaii, and I will get back to you via EBAY with the tracking number. Will be packed / shipped as “fragile”in a box of course. Shipping via UPS as I do not ship anything value-added via USPS. (USPS lost $9.5 billion in FY 2024…there is a reason for this).
I have been on EBAY since 2002 and have 2,077+ Positive Feed-backs (100%). This did not happen by accident of course over the past 24 years. In short, you can trust me. No returns, nor will you have a need to. I do not ship outside the United States…but do support EBAY’s Global / International Shipping Program.
Questions? Don’t be shy!
