“ONCE UPON A TIME” is a rare beauty from the hands of FranciscoCatala. This piece was issued in 1990and retired in 1997. It is a substantial piece that is about 10.25” tall. The lovely Mom and son (could also be a daughter), sit on a four legged LOVELY bench. Once Upon A Time retired in 1997 for $650.00 and is just stunning! I have examined the piece with the aid of a 30X loop and cannot find any cracks, repairs, discoloration...s, etc. other than what appears to be a couple of minorchips on the flowers in her headband. They are barely visible under magnification and almost invisible to thenaked eye. You can view the photos andmake a determination on your own. IT REALLY DISPLAYS BEAUTIFULLY! ONCE UPON A TIME HAS IT ALL AND WOULD MAKE A FABULOUS ADDITION TO YOUR LLADRO' COLLECTION!
