White & Gold Porcelain Protection Mudra Sculpture

Since time immemorial, hand gestures have been a language in their own right. Their expressiveness and symbolism have made them a method of communication. Protection Mudra is inspired by age-old gestures and is depicted as a raised hand with the palm facing outward. In this set of 1 protection mudra sculpture from Lladro, the hand is decorated with minutely etched plant motifs intertwined with the fingers and with a porcelain flower on the thumb, as if it were a part of the pattern that had come to life.
