Toro

Taurus according to the Zodiac
Spring’s second sign is Taurus, which represents this season in its stability.
Taurus represents slow and progressive growth, and is therefore characterized by the calm and patience with which it manages to do things, and by the safety in moving one step after another on solid and safe ground.
He is very concrete, attached to material goods of which he likes to make sensorial experience. An important feature concerning this sign is the dedication with which he lives and relates.
He is although stubborn and obstinate to the point of being unreasonable, excessively attached to certainties and material goods, possessive, jealous and touchy.
With a firm and constant personality and a great sense of taste, he has an aptitude for the arts or the kitchen, for working in the field of aesthetics, wellbeing, agriculture, and in any case respecting nature and its balance.

Taurus interpreted by Sibania
Taurus is a patient sign that prefers tranquillity, so this figure’s position is comfortable and frontal.
The dress is wide and soft, gently lying on the base covered almost entirely by it, stable and reassuring. The hairstyle recalls the horns of the bull in the two symmetrical tails, with the tips pointing upwards.
The predominant color of this sign is green, a friendly and soothing green, as the color of the buds and of the earth that is reborn. Green are also the eyes, while the hair, like the signs in the warm months, are brown.
Like Spring at its peak, Taurus’s dress is also flowery and lush, with a marked texture that strongly characterizes the figure, as particular prints also distinguish the other Earth signs of this collection.
The collar of the dress recalls the symbol of Taurus, with the central medallion from which two strips of soft fabric branch off around the shoulders.
Finally, the base is green, recalling the belonging to the Earth element.

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.
