Product description
🕊️ **Rosenthal Studio-Line “Künstler-Sammeldose” by Yang – Pyramid Lidded Box with Gold and Animal Motif** 🕊️
Model 2405/2 | Height 14.5 cm | Germany, 1990s
A sculptural collector’s piece from the renowned Rosenthal **Studio-Line Künstler-Sammeldosen** series, this pyramid-shaped porcelain box is designed by **Yang** and decorated with a rich ensemble of black-and-white animal figures on a pristine white ground, framed by a subtle band of **gold stars**.
The porcelain lid is crowned with a glossy gold sphere and a delicate white dove—Yang’s poetic signature in porcelain, evoking themes of harmony, biodiversity, and human-nature coexistence.
🔍 **Design Details**
* Pyramid form with gently flaring sides
* Lid topped by a stylised dove (or floral element, depending on rotation) perched on a golden sphere
* Finely drawn animal silhouettes in black against glossy white porcelain
* 24k gold band with star accents along the base
* Rosenthal Studio-Line markings and Yang signature to underside
🎨 **Concept**
This limited edition belongs to Rosenthal’s acclaimed “Künstler-Sammeldose” series (Artist Collector Boxes), where contemporary artists were invited to create small-scale conceptual objects. Yang’s piece is both playful and meditative—a porcelain cabinet of curiosities that invites contemplation on the fragility of life, the richness of Earth’s fauna, and the childlike wonder of classification.

– Base: 10.5 × 10.5 cm

✨ **Collector’s Note**
