Lladró 4809 Going Fishing, Fisher Boy with Creel

The Lladró 4809 Going Fishing is a glossy porcelain boy standing on a small pale base, looking down and to one side with pursed lips. He wears a wide-brimmed hat, cream, almost ivory, with the brim turned up at one side, a white short-sleeved shirt with an open collar and rolled sleeves, a mauve vest, a dusty pinkish taupe, blue-gray shorts, a soft slate blue, with a white belt, and tall gray waders, pale gray with a blue tint, folded down at the top. A tan woven creel, a light basket brown, hangs at his hip from a strap over his shoulder, and he rests one hand on it. His other hand is loosely curled at his side to hold the fishing pole.
