Bull&Stein
Bull & Stein is a distinguished German-Brazilian collaboration, founded in São Paulo by Cynthia Stein and Marcus Bull in 2002. For more than 20 years, the brand has been known for outstanding design, handmade objects, and international distribution of oversized fruit sculptures crafted to the highest standard of premium quality.
Bull & Stein sustains ancient heritage by travelling the world in search of craftsmen who perpetuate traditional, ancestral techniques. These are artists and sculptors who leave the imprint of their fingers on their artwork — making every piece a true signature and entirely unique.
Exclusively for Bull & Stein, Lisa Pappon — artist and designer from São Paulo, Brazil — creates inimitable ceramic apple sculptures as a universal symbol of desire and beauty. She reinterprets nature's mystic fruit in oversized ceramic apple sculptures up to 180 cm in diameter, continuously developed with love and perfection.
The core vision of Bull & Stein is the exaggerated, oversized scale of its sculptures — designed to stun, surprise, move, and captivate. The goal is to reconnect people with nature, enrich everyday urban life, and speak a global language that transcends cultures, ages, and origins.
Bull & Stein commissions the finest factories in Brazil, Portugal, India, and Hungary — all renowned centres of traditional craftsmanship. The brand offers an impressive range of materials including ceramic, porcelain, hand-blown glass, cast bronze, and fibre-resin.
The apple — a symbol of the Earth, of life, knowledge, and sensuality — has inspired art across civilisations for millennia. Bull & Stein takes this fruit of the mind and body as its muse, evoking its natural beauty through shimmering glaze, lapis lazuli, gold, and silver. Today, Bull & Stein sculptures enrich art collections and museums in every corner of the globe.
