Reinhard Wölfert
is skilled biomechanical lab technician and mold maker, later also wax modeler.
While on a business trip in Namibia, an almost forgotten desire woke up: The desire to mould, what he already enjoyed as a child. So then Mariannes's son was born - the first Wölfert porcelain artist doll, but more were to follow.
Because of his ability to both, mould wax models and build electroplated copper moulds, he can produce vinyl patterns completely on his own and made in Germany.

Ursula Hackbarth-Müller
is skilled legal executive.
About 20 years ago, she got skilled in painting porcelaine during various workshops. It became an essential part of her life. Reinhards detailed modeling is the key of her imagination. In her mind, she starts to design the new artist dolls from the painting, the hairstyle, up to the clothing. And thereafter she get to work until the new doll meets her mental image.
And, she runs the place. Office, mailbox and phone, organization of the house and a warm meal or a hot cup of coffe for the guests, thats all her business.
