Michael AramButterfly Ginkgo Luxe Kiddush Cup

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 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.
