Majestic, symbolic, and profoundly expressive, the Lladró Guardian Lioness Sculpture – Black is an extraordinary High Porcelain creation inspired by the sacred guardian figures that have protected temples, palaces, and noble residences across Eastern cultures for millennia. Produced in a strictly limited edition of only 188 pieces worldwide, this commanding sculpture represents protection, continuity, and the enduring circle of life.
Sculpted by renowned artist Francisco Polope, the guardian lioness is portrayed with her cub—a powerful symbol of care, guardianship, and the safeguarding of life. Crafted in black porcelain and enriched with silver enamel, metallic lustres, and contrasting gloss finishes, the sculpture radiates both strength and refinement.
Rooted in ancient tradition and inspired by monumental guardian statues carved in bronze, iron, and granite, this piece translates timeless symbolism into a contemporary artistic language. Black, blue, and silver tones dominate the ornamentation, lending the sculpture a modern, architectural presence. Every detail is meticulously hand-finished by Lladró’s High Porcelain artisans, from the elaborate skirts and chest plates to the decorative necklace and the lavish modeling of the mane, tail, and cub.
Traditionally displayed in pairs, the female guardian lion is positioned on the left when viewed from the front and is responsible for protecting the inhabitants within. This sculpture is designed to pair with the Lladró Guardian Lion – Black, completing the symbolic balance between protection of structure and protection of life.
