Have you ever gone on a picnic and realized that you forgot to bring forks? Well, if you ever went with Michael Aram, he’d create flatware out of twigs and bowls out of leaves, and you’d be dining like Alice in Wonderland. If you like the idea of bringing something organic and whimsical into your home, this is the collection for you. In Michael’s own words, here are some of the ideas and inspirations behind his creations.
“I love the idea of looking around a room and feeling as if the outdoors is slowly and beautifully seeping into an interior space.”
“This (Olive Branch) imagery has always held a powerful meaning… peace and victory. In solid bronze, it takes on a wonderful permanence.”
“There is something so seductive about orchids in black… like the dark, velvety atmosphere of haute couture.”
“This (New Molten) collection is a celebration of craft. Each bead is created by hand and bears the interpretation of the individual welder who made it.”
“I love the idea of finding beautiful pieces from the seaside and creating vessels that can be used to set a magical environment…”
“I am intrigued by the striking textures created through the hand forging process. For me, they evoke the same deep, brooding mystery that I feel when I look at early 20th Century New York landmarks such as the Empire State and the Chrysler buildings.”
