Scorpione

Scorpio according to the Zodiac
The central sign of Autumn is Scorpio, which represents the great fundamental principle of transformation
The Scorpio psyche is perhaps the most complex: he is an extremely intelligent sign, he loves to dig deep, to look for the limit and the way to overcome it, to experience all the possible experiences, and to reason in the long term: he knows how to wait patiently, foreseeing every possible development of an action.
He is dominated by emotions, whose intensity sometimes forces him to escape. Sensitive and compassionate, he seeks relationships but also shies away from them: he puts others to the test, sometimes showing himself as enigmatic and mysterious, sometimes confident and serene, but always in total control, not to be surprised by emotions that he fears would be devastating.
He really cares about his privacy. He loves to observe, study and understand others, to be able to foresee their behavior, but he does not like to be analyzed in return: he withdraws and escapes.

Scorpio interpreted by Sibania
Scorpio is a sensitive, intelligent and mysterious sign and the unusual, captivating but withdrawn, curious but prudent pose of this figure fully reflects this personality.
Even the simple dress with elaborate details takes up these aspects, embellished like the other Water signs by layers of white, candid and light tulle, which however in this case fade to black, indicating the enigmatic and underground nature of the sign. The tips of tulle are eight, like the legs of the scorpion, and decrease from the shortest in the front to the longest in the back, to the central back one, the ninth, the longest and darkest, curled upward just like a sting. The sting is also recalled by the long braid that originates from the charming drop on the forehead.
The colors of the sign are dark red and black, while the eyes take up the purple color of the Water element, as seen in the base.
The complex symbol of Scorpio is hinted at by the black contours of the bodice and by the curls that complete its outline.

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.
