Michael Aram Butterfly Ginkgo Pastry Dish with Dome - Silver

The Butterfly Ginkgo Collection celebrates the representation of flora as fauna. Michael 's fascination with a particular type of ginkgo tree, the ginkgo Biloba, or "Butterfly ginkgo", which grows with a double leaf reminiscent of a butterfly 's wings, gave rise to a fantasia image of the plant. Executed at the highest level of hand-craftsmanship, each piece is rendered in solid bronze with acid etched cocoon-shaped vessels. The pieces in the collection are a tour de force of Indian craft and capture the poetic spirit that is so deeply indicative of Michael 's work. Handcrafted serving dish. Hand-textured stainless steel with nickel-plated finish. Natural and oxidized brass decorative accents. Glass dome. Approx. 9. 25"Dia. x 12"T. Imported.
