The Sardinha de Lisboa is a special ceramic figurine produced by Bordallo Pinheiro. It pays homage to the traditional Portuguese sardine, which plays an important role in Portuguese cuisine and is a symbol of the country's culture and identity.
The Sardinha de Lisboa is a hand-painted ceramic figurine in the shape of a sardine. It features vibrant colors and is decorated with various patterns, designs, and motifs.
Each year, Bordallo Pinheiro creates a new collection of Sardinha de Lisboa figurines, each designed by Portuguese artists, designers, or prominent figures. These collections are often produced in limited editions and are popular with collectors and tourists alike.
One could call it a tribute to the Shrine of Fátima, which every year welcomes pilgrims from all over the world to express their faith and trust at the place where Our Lady appeared to the three shepherd children, Francisco, Jacinta, and Lúcia. A holy sardine!
The Sardinha de Lisboa has become a symbol of the city of Lisbon. During the festivities for Saint Anthony (Santo António), the patron saint of Lisbon, the city's streets are decorated with colorful sardine figures. This festival takes place every June and attracts many visitors.
