Butterfly Ginkgo Fingertip Towel Stand - 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 craftsmanship, each piece features etched cocoon-shaped vessels. The pieces in the collection are a tour de force of the crafting process, capturing the poetic spirit that is so deeply indicative of Michael 's work. "The first time I saw this tree, it literally looked like it had been completely overtaken by butterflies. As if they would all take flight the moment I walked too close or made a noise. The idea that the leaves could evoke the beauty of butterflies was magical to me, like trees that can metamorphose from flora to fauna in the blink of an eye.
