Il grande jazz 1

Porcelain figurine of a young saxophonist that seems to be coming directly from the streets of New Orleans. He is wearing a grey and white checkered shirt under a brick red vest, light beige travelers pants, a yellow bandana tied around his neck and a brown and white nearly baggy tartan hat. He holds his saxophone tight while leaning against a red balustrade. He is the beating heart of the Sweet Swing Band, Sibania’s official jazz band. For this reason, his friends call him by the name Grande Jazz.
Height: 45,5 cm

Every product created by Sibania is unique both concerning the realization process of every single piece and the production technology, which boasts its being inimitable by others. Each item is hand made and hand painted in our workshop, set in Vicenza (Italy). All clothes are made of thin, porcelain layers on which different kinds of textures are impressed. These layers are cutted according to the characteristics of every single template. They are successively carefully applied on the figurine body. Hairstyles are also handcrafted depending on each figurine’s unique features. Faces, clothes and accessories are painted on the biscuit with non-toxic colors. The piece is eventually baked one last time (“third firing”). Any additional details such as violin strings or the Vespa kickstands are then applied on the finished piece.
