Product Description:
From Chualgarve - Pediatria Unidade Portimão, this Sardine is the little ones' best friend.
This Sardine swims in the clothes the kids painted, full of colors and airy, wanting to show how beautiful she is.
Moments of pure happiness between the children and this playful Sardine. Moments to play, paint and be happy.
The Sardine collection by Bordallo Pinheiro results from a collaboration between the Earthenware Factory of Caldas da Rainha, founded in 1884 by Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro, EGEAC (Lisbon’s Cultural and Animation municipal entity). And Lisbon’s City Council.
The original Bordallo Pinheiro’s Sardine, designed in the XIX century, due to its classic three-dimensional nature, became the ideal support for receiving the creative work that EGEAC develops since 2003, within Lisbon’s Festivities, which transformed the sardine, iconic fish of Portuguese culture and gastronomy, an international icon of the city and of Summer celebrations of the Portuguese capital.
