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.\u003cbr\u003e\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\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDETAILS MATERIALS:\u003cli\u003e7\"L x 6.25\"W x 2.5\"H\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eHand Textured Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eNatural Oxidized Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e \u003cbr\u003eListed with ExportYourStore.com\u003c\/li\u003e","brand":"Michael Aram","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40169143631934,"sku":"175763","price":138.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/3311\/6730\/files\/57_25078926-9748-4051-bd19-68d5fceef4b0.jpg?v=1764798633","url":"https:\/\/antiquecupboard.net\/products\/michael-aram-butterfly-ginkgo-hand-textured-stainless-steel-wine-coaster-175763","provider":"Antique Cupboard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
