BEAUTIFUL CREATURES
These wafer-thin porcelain tumblers with gold-plated interiors are colourfully decorated with animal species like elephants, polar bears, octopuses and flamingos, and have been designed with loving attention to detail. Against the patterned backgrounds, the animals stand out with their own distinctive character. The Beautiful Creatures tumblers are a part of champagne tumbler collection Sip of Gold.
THE FLAMINGOS & THE TURTLES
In 2024, two new animal decors add to our Beautiful Creatures series. Flamingos are among the most elegant and sociable aquatic birds. The ones adorning this colourful porcelain tumbler have the potential to become new favourite companions. Turtles, loveable and amazingly adaptable creatures, can be now found floating around on a further new model of our champagne tumblers Sip of Gold.
The two new tumblers are available at our local retail partners and in the FÜRSTENBERG online shop.
COLOURFUL COLLECTOR'S ITEMS
Our Beautiful Creatures couldn’t be more different at first glance. With its vibrant colours and all the razor-sharp teeth on display, The Sharks packs a powerful presence. The Kiwis may not be quite as well known as other animals, but that didn’t stop them becoming New Zealand’s national symbol. Kiwis are also nocturnal – just like many shark species. A promising sign that your guests are in for a fun evening!
PRECIOUS WILDLIFE
The seven animal species of our Beautiful Creatures come from different parts of the world and represent both the beauty and the vulnerability of nature. These species are endangered by poaching, dwindling habitats and ocean pollution. Polar bears are also emblematic of the dangers of climate change, as rising air and water temperatures pose an extreme threat to their survival.
“Our Beautiful Creatures collection is a follow-up to the special-edition tumbler Precious Companions, created in partnership with Dr. Barbara Sturm. This collection likewise helps to support the organisation National Park Rescue, which actively works for wildlife protection and conservation.”

PRECIOUS COMPANIONS |
DR. BARBARA STURM EDITION
The Beautiful Creatures series was inspired by the Precious Companions tumbler created in partnership with Dr. Barbara Sturm in 2021. Each unique, handcrafted tumbler is adorned with elephants, bees, turtles, and rabbits, elegantly illustrating the beauty and diversity of animal species. A portion of proceeds from sales of the Precious Companions collection likewise goes to National Park Rescue.
COLLABORATION WITH
DR. BARBARA STURM
The limited-edition Precious Companions tumbler is the first time we’ve developed a design based on an external partner’s wishes and ideas. Dr. Barbara Sturm made an international name for herself with her anti-inflammatory skincare philosophy and her non-surgical, anti-aging skin treatments. “What we have here are two brands coming together that both have roots in Germany and that both share the same exacting quality standards”, says Michael Sieger.
DOING GOOD TOGETHER
Purchasing a tumbler from the Beautiful Creatures collection or the special-edition tumbler Precious Companions helps support the vital work of the wildlife rescue organisation National Park Rescue (NPR). Their ranger and patrol teams protect African national parks and the wild animals that live there in their natural habitats, and operate strategically targeted projects to ensure their long-term survival.
