4055193 - Butterfly Ginkgo Cakes Stand with Dome
- 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 hand-craftsmanship, 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.
- Handcrafted cake stand with marble plate.
- Oxidized brass base.
- Natural brass butterflies.
- Glass dome.
- Approx. 11"Dia. x 6.5"T.
- Imported.
