"Kolleg" Ceramic Shelf-Sitter Figures
Crafted by Mojca Vidmar | Studio Roka, Zürich
Quiet, contemplative, and delightfully expressive, the Kolleg ("Colleague" / "Companion") series brings a poetic human presence to your home or studio shelves. Hand-sculpted in Zürich by ceramist Mojca Vidmar, each miniature figure features long, draped legs designed specifically to perch along the edge of a bookshelf, mantelpiece, or window sill.
Captured in moments of quiet devotion—knitting a ball of yarn, reading an open book, or simply sitting in shared silence—these tactile ceramic sculptures serve as gentle reminders to slow down. Formed from raw terracotta and stoneware clays with selective glossy glazes, no two companions are ever identical.
💡 Studio Note: Each figure is a one-of-a-kind creation. While select pieces are featured online, many more unique designs, poses, and character variations are available directly in our Zürich studio shop.
