# Porcelain Guns More Pretty Guns For Your Tea Table By Cowbag | Published 2008-07-14 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porcelin-guns-more-pretty-guns-for-your-tea-table References: [berlin.unlike.net](http://berlin.unlike.net/articles/3-Walther-PPK-goes-Coffeetable) The [Porcelain](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porcelain-factory-plugin-revival) Pistols project, by Yvonne Lee Schultz will make you think twice about your tableware. The guns used are replicas of the famous James Bond PPK. Each is lovingly hand-painted in the style of [classic china](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handpainted-ceramic-collections). It really does make you look twice. They would blend perfectly into your grandmother’s tea room. I actually think these are quite beautiful, but I am not quite sure if it is wrong to be thinking that about a gun. The way they look really makes me want to pick them up and play with them which again I guess is not great. So in summary: ethically dodgy but they look amazing and I want them all.
