Forest Leaf Rimmed Bowl by Michael Aram
9.25" Diam. x 1.5"H
Limoges Porcelain
Michael Aram Fine Porcelain was designed to reflect the way we are entertaining today incorporating ease and comfort without sacrificing grace and detail. It's about the casualization of formal and the formalization of casual.
Constructed of Limoges bodies with exceptionally executed graphic details, the pieces remain sturdy enough to withstand everyday use. Each motif stands on its own but can also be combined with any or all of the texture patterns to create many variations of place settings. All the body shapes are exactly the same, so you can mix the plates any way you want and know they'll always look beautiful. The designs are also carefully managed to integrate perfectly with Michael Aram's existing array of metal, glass, wood and stone serving and decorative objects. The result is an exquisite table every time you use them...casual when you want to be, more formal when the time is right...with motifs that go from two-dimensional expressions in the place settings to fully sculptural executions in the center of the table.
Care Instructions: Dishwasher safe. Microwave safe. As with all fine China, avoid hitting against other hard surfaces, particularly at the edges.
The Forest Leaf Collection takes its inspiration from the intricacies of form and texture found in foliage from around the world. By interpreting plant forms in cast metal or fine porcelain, Aram presents work, which is evocative of a natural environment transformed and redefined. Each piece is an intimate expression of Aram's individual creativity as well as an object of infinite and timeless meaning.
These pieces were inspired from a hiking trip. I noticed the soft cushion created by the fallen leaves in the forest. It was gentle, fragrant and pliant, almost as if it had been put there just for me. What I enjoy about the Forest Leaf pieces is that in a way they are 'slices' of nature, small vignettes of the forest. I also love the contract of the top and bottom surfaces of leaves themselves. They speak of duality in all its incarnations: yin and yang, Ganga and Yamuna, dark and light."
