About this collection
Petipa was an important nineteenth-century choreographer, best known for his collaboration with Tchaikovsky. “Petits pas”, in French, means “small steps”. Both are pronounced in much the same way.
Based on this pun and in homage to the great choreographer, we have named this collection: Petipa, small dance steps.

Historical Collection
These figurines belong to Sibania’s Historical Collection: they are among the first models we have made available to the public.
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.
