Porcelain you can touch

Dot after dot, bead after bead - this is how the ornaments, applied to the turned porcelain with a thick engobe, line up on the elegant white. Sophia Weiß finds the inspiration for her designs in nature, the depths of the underwater world and Art Nouveau. Haptics are very important here - touching is a must!
