Cappuccetto Rosso

Little Red Riding Hood

Porcelain figurine of Little Red Riding Hood. As told in the fairytale, this little girl is wearing a red hooded cape, a light blue dress and a lace petticoat. She keeps close to her a wicker basket full of delicious food for her grandmother. She is standing right outside of the wood, a finger to her chin, not sure whether she should take the winding path in the flowery meadow or the wide road crossing the wood right in the middle that would take her directly to her grandmother house.
Height: 18 cm

Every product created by Sibania is unique both concerning the realization process of every single piece and the production technology, which boasts its being inimitable by others. Each item is hand made and hand painted in our workshop, set in Vicenza (Italy). All clothes are made of thin, porcelain layers on which different kinds of textures are impressed. These layers are cutted according to the characteristics of every single template. They are successively carefully applied on the figurine body. Hairstyles are also handcrafted depending on each figurine’s unique features. Faces, clothes and accessories are painted on the biscuit with non-toxic colors. The piece is eventually baked one last time (“third firing”). Any additional details such as violin strings or the Vespa kickstands are then applied on the finished piece.
