Historical Collection
These figurines belong to Sibania’s Historical Collection: they are among the first models we have made available to the public.
Porcelain figurine of three friends holding their hands as they play girotondo (ring around the roses). The two little girls are wearing a pink dress and a yellow dress respectively. The little boy is wearing a green t-shirt and shorts. They look very happy and it seems like they are singing “giro-girotondo / casca il mondo / casca la terra / tutti giù per terra!” (Ring around the rosy/Pocket full of posies/Ashes, ashes/We all fall down).
Height: 17 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.
