Our identifiers have recently included a three-letter code followed by a number. This code is a reference for our internal control only. It is not a serial number or a codified production date. The fact that we have used different inscriptions at different times does not mean that pieces have been classified into different categories. It is simply that various international legal mechanisms have been used at different times to defend the Lladro trade name and copyright.
