Made its debut on Shophq.  I love these figurines but was fortunate to get them in Spain at greatly reduced prices.  Does anyone collect these anymore????

I purchased some from the Madrid, Spain factory. What an adventure going thru their store and trying to decide which one (or more) to purchase. They also have a branch of Llardo that is called Nao, I think. They are very well done, but less expensive.

I have a statue of Mary from my grandmother, and I bought this one.  I don't collect, though.

I had many of them but when I had a realtor look at my home, she told me to ditch the knick knacks. That was twelve years ago. She claimed my home looked dated with them. I followed her advice and glad I did.

I bought a few in Spain and I have some others as well, including a few signed pieces.

 

I bought the precious home sweet home Christmas ornament today.

 

I admire the craftsmanship, but due to my animal menagerie, the few that I have are behind glass doors.

 

I think the younger generation only wants to collect electronic "likes" !

Pretty sure Q used to have these occasionally, like in the 90s.

I've always admired them, thought they were beautiful but never owned one.

Started collecting years ago, then lost interest for some reason.  Still have them, though.  

 

I still think they are very special, but it's interesting how some of our tastes change over the years.

I collect nativities.  When my sister was in Spain, she purched the Holy Family for me.
