Bodega-cat, are you also the faux-Tiffany lamp queen?

No @R1 but I find his enthusiasm to be charming

Oh, dahlink, it's divoon!! And at just $4200, you shouldn't hesitate another minute, lest other tasteful gurls snatch them all up first!

Is that Cleopatra?

God, I'm set to inherit tons of this stuff. And an even larger cache of Precious Moments figurines. What am I going to do with it, smash it and trash it? Nobody's going to want these things, to say nothing of the mammoth chippendale hutches they live in.

It would look perfect next to your Kincade, op…

Give it to Bodega-Cat.

The cunt sister-in-law collects this mierda and displays it in her kitchen. Gauche on gauche.

You can get something similar for around nine bucks in Tijuana, OP.

It will go so beautifully with this lamp!

I saw one of those at Mrs. Soprano's house once. I pretended I was impressed.

Bodega-cat, are you the same Bodega-cat that took down Valerie Bertinelli?

Do you suppose they also make the mirror image? I’d love to get a matching set to put on nightstands to frame my bed.

I think I've seen this one in the Sunnydale Proects, SF.

Sylvia Fine: It’s pronounced “Ya-dro” Aunt Freida: You can pronounce it, I can afford it!

This crap always reminds me of The Sopranos.

A great aunt used to collect Hummils (sp). She spent a small fortune on those stupid things

I hope this shit is worth something to someone. My mother has a trove of them and when she goes, they are not coming into my house. E-bay? Or just sell the lot to an antiques dealer for whatever I get offered?

You can give yours to Bodega-Cat, too, r17.

Here's an IG page for bodega cats, btw.

Average lladros appear to go for $50 - 100 on Ebay. You'll make a bit if change for your next drunken boy's weekend in Cabo.

I’m speechless too!

True story, it was only through my introduction to Llardro that I learned of the double “L” in Spanish being pronounced differently and from then on it changed how I said llama.

These figurines make me twitchy with rage. Want to take a hammer to it.

There is nothing cute about cats kept by bodega owners R18. They are often mistreated and discarded.

I don’t like the figurine but I WILL take that hot spokesman!

Is this company involved in drug trafficking or something because it has lovely stores around the world. Surely the sale of this garbage isn't keeping them afloat.

R25 Yes, drugs are smuggled in the hollow centers of these pieces and glide through customs when examples from the clown head line are given to and used to grease the palms of the officials. That’s the only explanation I have for how they stay in business.

Get some Lalique too

I admire this company for remaining in the family for many decades and for keeping manufacturing within Spain. They've wisely moved into the Home Goods market with lighting, vases, home decor, etc.

I have one of these figures a ballerina. inherited from someone. It fell off a dresser and the head broke off but I glued it back on.
