Exclusive Collection Globe with stingrays

Immerse yourself in an extraordinary work of art created by Meissen artist Maximilian Hagstotz. The delicate ray sphere combines the finest craftsmanship with an impressive message: the protection of our Earth and its precious habitats.

Five majestic rays entwine themselves in flowing motion around a living coral reef, forming a harmonious sphere-a symbol of our fragile yet fascinating planet. The curved pectoral fins offer the viewer insights into an underwater world full of details: bright corals, playful sea creatures, and delicate organisms reveal the beauty of the oceans.

The ray sphere is more than just a sculpture. It invites us to appreciate the fragility and diversity of nature and to take responsibility. With each viewing, our appreciation for the wonders of the earth grows - a message that touches both the heart and the mind.

This extraordinary work impresses not only with its finely tuned details, but also with its size: at 44 cm tall, it places the highest demands on all trades at the MEISSEN porcelain manufactory. Every step-from modeling and casting to decorating the details and firing-requires absolute precision. With multi-part figures of this size, each individual part must fit perfectly without warping during the firing process. This makes the Rochenkugel a technical and artistic masterpiece.

The design is by Maximilian Hagstotz (2025), who translated the impressive dynamism of the underwater world into a harmonious sphere. The painting was created by Andrea Freytag, whose finely tuned colors give the sea creatures their unmistakable luminosity.
