Retired: N/A
Chihuahua with Marshmallows Lladró

As quoted directly from ELITE 1999-2000 by Lladró: "Check the authenticity of your Lladró porcelain. Reject imitations."

"If the base of a porcelain figurine presents any of the five kiln-fixed inscriptions shown here (pictured in Janet's Buy Tip #2), you can be sure that it is an authentic Lladró creation. Pictures numbered 1, 2 and 3 show the development of our identifiers over the years, with the last two pictures (4 and 5) presenting the current design. Our identifier has recently included a three-letter code followed by a number (picture 5). This code is a reference for our internal control only. It is not a serial number or a codified production date. The fact that we have used different inscriptions at different times does not mean that pieces have been classified into different categories. It is simply that various international legal mechanisms have been used at different times to defend the Lladró tradename and copyright."
