I love almost everything Michael Adam makes. This took some time to adjust to, admittedly. It was larger and gaudier than I expected from the photo. And the butterflies looked like insects. It requires exactly the right photo to make it look good. That’s the frame. The delivery time was insane. I ordered it in December and received it in April. In truth, it wasn’t worth the wait..

Michael Aram
The Golden Ginkgo collection takes its inspiration from the intricacies of form and texture found in foliage from around the world. By interpreting plant forms in cast metal, Aram presents work that is evocative of a natural environment transformed and redefined. "These pieces have wonderfully undulating leaves, which create an almost rococo surface of playful, delicate, and intricate forms. By combining the individually sculpted leaves, the natural forms join to create a complex pattern. I've tried to capture that sense of movement and fragility in metal."

Michael Aram
Michael Aram's limited edition sculptures are handmade artistic explorations inspired by objects and ideas that capture Michael's imagination. The Sculptures are individually crafted so that no two pieces are ever exactly alike. The moon gates are inspired by traditional round passageways found in Chinese landscape architecture which act as entry and exit points to the garden. The circular elements are symbolic of the idea of completion, representing and celebrating the cohesiveness of the family, as members pass through the gate to return home. Another interpretation is that, like the moon, the opening is symbolic of the cycle of life, and renewal as the full moon marks wholeness and is suggestive of new beginnings. "I love thinking of these sculptures as a portal into nature. By looking at the moon gate, I am reminded of the delicate balance between man and nature, and my need for connection between my home life and the beauty and abundance of nature."

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 handcraftsmanship, 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 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."

Michael Aram presents the Butterfly Ginkgo Cutlery Caddy, a poetic tour de force that celebrates the metamorphosis of flora into fauna. Inspired by the ginkgo tree, whose double leaves mimic a butterfly’s wings, this handmade piece features hand-etched cocoon vessels rendered in solid brass and stainless steel. The rectangular silhouette captures the "perfectly imperfect" beauty of nature, turning a functional server into a lyrical sculpture. Its gold and silver tones evoke a magical fantasia, honoring age-old Indian traditions. This imported caddy is a celebration of the handcrafted process, imbuing the everyday with a rich storyline and the enduring soul of the artisan’s touch.
Very sturdy and beautiful caddy. Fits a lot of cutlery! I get asked about it during parties. Joseph. Boston, MA. Tue Mar 18 2025
