“Due to mass production people get an overload on products and gadgets, that follow the newest hypes, every season. Most consumer articles are cheap and easily replaceable. Which leads to more consumption and waste of materials. My personal goal is to create products that are beautiful, unique and can withstand time by giving them personal and exclusive qualities.”

Since 2007 Carola has been working together with craftsmen in Jingdezhen China. Famouse for it’s porcelain production for centuries.
Even with the big economical and industrial changes in China a lot of products here are still produced manually. This form of craftsmanship and the people who are doing it are the main focus point in her designs.

This is one of the reasons why she opened up a second studio in Jingdezhen China.

"The skill and craftmanship available in Jingdezhen is amazing. Being able to work closely together with these craftsmen makes it possible for me to create the desired uniqueness in my objects."

Carola Zee has run her own design company since 2004, developing and producing ceramic products. She works under her own label and also designs for other labels.
