Lladró welcomes the new millennium with the collection
“Inspiration Millennium”, a series of metaphorical sculptures
that evoke the best of humanity and invite us to reflect on
our place in the universe.
In 2001, the Lladró Collectors Society gives way to Lladró Privilege, an innovative customer loyalty program which incorporates a new service concept based on a closer and more special treatment toward Lladró porcelain lovers.
One of the most important facts in this period is, after fifty years at the head of the company, the three founding brothers turn over control to the second
Lladró generation, which becomes part of the new Board of Directors
in 2003.
Idea, of the Aura collection
(2003)
The first half of this decade is marked by Lladró’s introduction of an innovative aesthetic line which coexists with its classics. Thus, collections like “Aura”, “Movement” and “Humanitas” are born. The brand also launches pieces that combine beauty with functionality, in which porcelain gives personal meaning to everyday life. This is the case of “The Emperor’s
table” or one of its most recent launchings, Lladró Bath. This new line, created in cooperation with the company Supergrif, is Lladró’s first foray in the bath items sector.
Likewise, Lladró announces the
Re-Cyclos project in
2005, where important designers create new objects out of the brand’s
classical pieces. In its first edition, the creative team
CuldeSac creates
original crowns and geodes out of Christmas ornaments while
Bodo
Sperlein creates items of jewelry and decoration in Lladró Re-Cyclos
Magical.
On another note, 2006 was also the year when
the company brought the renowned designer
Jaime
Hayón on board, at the moment Artistic Advisor of the
brand.
