The Ronit Baranga dishware is certainly something fit for 'The Addams Family' or 'The Twilight Zone.' Absolutely disturbing, it seems to have come from another dimension.

Known for his [atypical sculptures](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ronit-baranga), Baranga has branched out to the kitchen, applying his creepy creativity to the Ronit Baranga dishware collection. Made using clay and porcelain, his dishes and cups incorporate creepy body parts like fingers and mouths.
