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.
