Anke Weiss is the designer behind the peculiar looking porcelain creations you see in the featured gallery. Dubbed 'The Incubator Series,' these pots were made for Eat Drink Design, a restaurant that mixes fine dining with design.
Anke Weiss' 'The Incubator Series' was inspired by microscopic photographs of insect eggs. Check out the entire collection in the gallery above.
Implications - If you're not too easily grossed out or turned off by the concept of unhatched insects, then you'll definitely find these porcelain pots appealing. I am definitely curious as to the type of food that is served at the restaurant where 'The Incubator Series' exists. I sure hope they don't offer their guests a fresh bowl of insect egg soup!
