Elephant, hippo, owl. For porcelain specialist KOBER we revived the legendary FUNNIES. A redesign based on the 1970s originals, these little animals are made of pure white porcelain with black or platinum contrasts and are created from a strand of porcelain. Similar to a certain type of biscuit dough, the porcelain is pressed through a tool and then cut into pieces. A specially made metal tool is available for the production of each little animal – all the tools are originals from the initial production phase and are now in use again. Our interpretation has given the FUNNIES a contemporary appearance, while retaining their characteristic shapes.
