Live and act

Stefanie Hering completed a pottery apprenticeship at the Göllner pottery in Besigheim (1983–1986) and worked as a journeyman in Ireland , Denmark and Germany (1986–1989). She then studied at the technical college for ceramic design in Höhr-Grenzhausen (1989–1992) with a degree as a ceramic master and a state-recognized ceramic designer.

In 1992 she and Wiebke Lehmann opened the workshop and gallery Stefanie Hering Porzellan & Wiebke Lehmann Ceramics in Prenzlauer Berg in East Berlin . Freely twisted porcelain vessels were created that combine bisque porcelain with glazed porcelain surfaces, and since then she has created several collections. In 1995 a cooperation with other companies began, initially with Steng Licht Stuttgart. In addition to the first exhibitions (from 1993), there were trade fairs in New York , Tokyo and Frankfurt ( Ambiente and Tendence ). In 1996 Hering received the Hessian State Prize for German handicrafts . Since 1997 she has been exhibiting regularly at the Maison & Objet trade fair in Paris .

In 1999 she founded Stefanie Hering - Berlin GmbH with her husband and Wiebke Lehmann , registered under the trademark "Hering Berlin". When the label was founded, the collaboration with the Reichenbach porcelain factory in Thuringia began . In 2007, this company took over the production of all Stefanie Hering's designs for Hering Berlin .

The porcelain manufacturer was represented in the Future Vision pavilion at Expo 2000 . In the same year the Red Dot Award “Best of the Best” went to the company. In 2009 the company received the Gold Prize of the World Ceramic Biennale Korea from the international jury in the "Ceramic for use" category. The gold design award of the Federal Republic of Germany followed in 2013 . Star chefs , luxury hotels and restaurants buy the porcelain, which was also used at the G7 summit at Schloss Elmau in 2015 .

Hering repeatedly expanded her design work to include other materials and trades. For example, she designed textile collections with Stephanie Siepmann. A collection of drinking glasses was created in collaboration with the Theresienthal glassworks. Vases, glasses, bowls, bottles and porcelain figurines are also part of their collections. She also developed a collection of chandeliers made of hand-blown glass.

In 2017, together with Marta Salas-Porras, she opened the studio “Projekt Hering Berlin - a space for convergence of art, design, culture and technology”, which later became today's flagship store on Potsdamer Strasse.
