Lladró Anubis Dog Figurine
SKU: 01008439
A striking large-scale porcelain sculpture, this Lladró Anubis Dog Figurine presents a subject rarely explored by the brand, drawing inspiration from the powerful symbolism of Ancient Egypt. The piece represents Anubis, the jackal-headed god associated with mummification and the afterlife, whose name is of Greek origin.
This sculpture is a refined replica of the original Anubis figure found in the tomb of King Tutankhamun, where it served as a guardian of the pharaoh’s mummy. Finished in glossy black porcelain and enhanced with subtle golden accents, the figure conveys both authority and serenity.
In Ancient Egyptian culture, the color black was not linked to mourning or fear, but to fertility and prosperity, symbolizing the rich black silt left by the Nile’s annual floods. This deeper meaning adds historical and cultural significance to the sculpture, elevating it beyond a decorative object into a symbolic work of art.
