Preludio

Porcelain figurine depicting a girl with a cello. She wears an elegant ice green dress with a delicate soft tulle skirt and a bodice with a wide back and butterfly print. The hair is loose over the shoulders, and the most unruly curls at the back of the head are collected with a bow in the shape of a butterfly. She holds the score in her hands and hugs the cello, perhaps thinking about how to correctly interpret the new melody.

Each product created by Sibania is unique both in terms of the process of realization of each individual product and in terms of production technology, which boasts that it has no analogues and makes imitation difficult. Each piece is made and painted by hand in the Sibania workshop located in Vicenza (Italy). All clothes are made of thin layers of porcelain, onto which various textures are applied. These layers are cut according to the characteristics of each individual template. They are sequentially carefully applied to the body of the figurine. The hairstyles are also handcrafted based on the unique features of each figurine. Faces, clothing and accessories are painted on the biscuit using non-toxic paints. Finally, the product is baked one last time (“third firing”). Any additional details, such as violin strings or Vespa stands, are then applied to the finished product.

All Sibania porcelain figurines are created strictly by hand. This means that even if the original model is faithfully reproduced, each figurine will be slightly different from all other similar ones, such as in drapery, hairstyle or painting.

Thus, Each Sibania product is unique and is characterized by exceptional attention to detail, high quality materials and the confidence that it is a handmade product, which is also confirmed by the markings that are placed on each product, such as the “made in Italy” stamp and the Sibania logo.
