Silversmith Rimmed Bowl by Michael Aram
9.25" Diam. x 1.5"H
Limoges Porcelain, Platinum
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: Hand wash only. Platinum banded - DO NOT use in microwave oven. As with all fine China, avoid hitting against other hard surfaces, particularly at the edges.
The Michael Aram Silversmith Collection is a homage to the simple beauty of the forger's craft. The texture of hammertone has been seen for millennia in metal objects, bearing silent testament to each stroke of the hammer. The surface that remains is faceted and meticulous without losing its random and organic feeling. The Silversmith Collection of fine porcelain strives to capture this mystical and timeless motif. The design is also carefully crafted in terms of color and detail to integrate perfectly with any of Michael's other dinnerware patterns. The unified body shapes used in all of the motifs make mixing and matching the patterns a seamless proposition.
"I have always been mesmerized by the idea that a cold, hard piece of metal could be pushed into any shape. It's a little like magic in a way. There is also a wonderful romance to the fact that each gesture the artist makes becomes immortalized in a single mark, creating a texture that is quite simply breathtaking."
