Reminiscent of eucalyptus and seagrape, the structure celebrates the twisting branches as much as it does the leaves.

For me, the motif conjures a sense of freshness and fragility, while the materials and craftsmanship speak of something more robust, more human."

The Vine collection snatches inspiration from the imagery that floats around classic storytelling. The shapes are immediate and obvious, and yet, impressionistic and lyrical - the way a small child might envisage a story’s scene unfurling before them it conjures a creeping feeling, somehow seeming at once ancient and new. "For me, these vines evoke the overgrown entrance to an enchanted forest. They reference a surreal window to a world of fantasy-flora, and unexpected beauty." - Michael Aram.

This is a teacup saucer not an appetizer plate. I would have been spared an inquiry if it was identified correctly online. Having said that, it's lovely. The gray glaze has a texture that contributes to keeping the cup in the center. The pattern around the edge might bother some; it seems to go blurry. To me, it looks like a border.. Lady Whistledown.

The Michael Aram Black Orchid collection was inspired by the powerful sensuality of orchids and the rich ambiance of haute couture "strikingly simple yet full of the most extreme detail. The collection has an almost gothic feeling "opiated, lush, and smoldering "like the dark, velvety atmosphere of a luxurious evening. "There is something so seductive about orchids. In blackened nickel, they are even more sublime, like a woman wearing a black velvet gown floating through a great estate or a glassy urban high-rise. The dark atmosphere of the orchids against the hammered metal is like the afterglow of a beautiful evening."

The Michael Aram's Pomegranate collection takes its inspiration from one of the most universal and ancient symbols in the world. The fruit has been prized across the globe, across cultures, and across time as a representation of life, rebirth, and renewal as well as fertility and union. "I grew up around pomegranates - from their use as natural dyes on the antique rugs I used to crawl on as a baby to an integral ingredient in the food that I love. When I'm at my home in New Delhi, I wake each morning to the taste of freshly squeezed pomegranate juice. The color, the smell, the delicate flavor all make it feel like a magical elixir to me."

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 brass with hand-etched cocoon-shaped vessels. The pieces in the collection are a tour de force of the handcrafted process, capturing the poetic spirit that is so deeply indicative of Michael's work. The first time I saw this tree, it 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.

• Each piece is shaped and molded along rigorous accuracy standards. The porcelain is fired at 1400ºC, resulting in a white, shiny, resistant surface.
• Hallmarks of the handmade process, each piece is a love story of luxury and quality.

Lovely! I have it out on the patio table and drop rose petals into it in the morning when I prune the roses. Butterflies and rose petals. It doesn't get better than that.. Terrie. Vancouver, WA. 2024-07-05 18:08:13

Hammertone techniques have been a cornerstone in jewelry and metal crafting for millennia, and each mark bears a silent testament to the skill of the craftsman. The collection of fine porcelain strives to capture the random and organic feeling of this age-old process. The porcelain is also designed to integrate perfectly with any of Michael's other dinnerware patterns. The unified body shapes used in all of the motifs make mixing and matching the patterns a seamless proposition. "I have always been mesmerized by the craft of hand forging and how a cold hard piece of metal can be transformed in shape. It is romantic and almost magical to me how quick gestures and seemingly random strikes of a hammer become frozen in time, creating a texture that is both spontaneous and ageless."
