The idea behind the reviewed here Marabu-pins is as simple as it is ingenious, easy to decorate with "markers" porcelain and ceramics, instead herumzukleckern with brush and loose paint.
Whether children want to decorate a white place setting with images, whether his office cup just will assign names and possibly offensive sayings, make gifts individually or possibly at some "sophisticated" will venture decor, the five pins fit comfortably in hand, can be readily and evenly on porcelain or ceramic and the colors are clear and quite intense, fade later but again a little.
One should be careful when painting, do not come to the freshly applied paint, otherwise they smeared;
However, it is quite convenient that small slip can be corrected with a little damp paper towel.
After painting the porcelain goes into the oven (not pre-heat, baking time may be slightly longer and cool things at rest in the oven can be) to fix the color.
Supposedly, the color will then be dishwasher safe, I have not tested this since I do not have a dishwasher, first and second argwöhne that a little sparing the colors may be wrong in any case.
Also, I would, if only for reasons of hygiene, not just paint points so that come directly into contact with food, so cups and plates from the outside only on the edge.
And I have, although the color is natural health risk, just a better feeling and because you do not have too much scrub those places, you should then also have something more of his "works of art".
A fading of color is indeed still undeniable after a few rinses, but the color will remain for eternity as new, you will probably already not seriously expect colors that are easily applied with a pen and fixed in domestic stove.
Conclusion: For a reasonable price you much arts and crafts fun gets not only for children but also for adults.
Only excessive demands on the durability should not have.
