{"product_id":"butterfly-ginkgo-bud-vase-by-michael-aram","title":"Butterfly Ginkgo Bud Vase By Michael Aram","description":"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 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"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.\"\u003cbr\u003e3.5\"W x 4.25\"H; Stainless Steel, Natural \u0026amp; Oxidized Brass, White Enamel","brand":"Silver Spoons NY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31316194764,"sku":"","price":79.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0541\/6085\/products\/175760_med.jpg?v=1480353879","url":"https:\/\/silver-spoons-ny.myshopify.com\/products\/butterfly-ginkgo-bud-vase-by-michael-aram","provider":"Silver Spoons NY","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
