What does firing with solar energy mean?
Our kilns are powered by electricity from our own solar energy system. This way, Margit Denz’s porcelain creations are made not only with great passion but also with responsibility — for our environment and future generations.
What are the dimensions of the DenzHerzen?
All DenzHerzen share the same base size of 11 x 12 x 4 cm, allowing them to be combined harmoniously—no matter which design you choose.
Which DenzHerzen go well together?
All DenzHerzen are designed to complement each other stylishly — whether tone-on-tone, as contrasting pairs, or within themed series like Wings or Flowers.

How do I mount DenzHerzen on my wall at home?
Mounting the DenzHerzen
The DenzHerzen can be easily and securely mounted on your wall. No special skills are required—just a keen eye for placement, lighting, and context to showcase each heart to its fullest.
Wall Mounting
On the back of every DenzHerz is the original casting opening—subtly crafted and intentionally left as is. This serves as a natural hanging point, allowing for precise and stable wall mounting with a simple nail or fine screw.
We recommend using a sturdy, thin steel nail (such as a picture nail) that can safely support the porcelain's weight. The heart can be hung directly onto the nail via the opening and adjusted to the desired position.
For arrangements, we suggest spacing the mounting points approximately 15 to 20 cm apart. This distance allows multiple hearts to be displayed beautifully together.

Modeling workshops are intentionally kept small, with groups ranging from 4 to a maximum of 10 participants. This creates a relaxed, personal atmosphere with plenty of space for individual guidance, creative exchange, and a true immersion in the creative process.
Can I book a modeling workshop as a group activity, such as a company outing or team event?

Yes, of course. After the workshop, your piece will remain with us to be dried and fired—a process that typically takes about 2 to 3 weeks.
Once completed, you can either pick up your finished sculpture from our studio.
