Item Description

Michael Aram's Safari Collection draws from untamed expeditions into the wilds of nature. In the collection colors, and unexpected textures, combine to create a sense of rustic luxury that is timeless and contemporary. "On safari, you can see a streak of tigers at sunset and be sure you've witnessed the Hand of God. Perhaps you distinguish the lazy hope of a leopard sunning himself on a rock and forget to breathe. You spy at moving logs of alligators floating with a casual tension as they break the waters' skin. This vivid natural beauty, seen when you venture beyond the beaten path, was the inspiration for this collection."

About Michael Aram:
American artist Michael Aram studied art in New York in the late 1980s before traveling to India on an inspirational journey, where he discovered a rich metalworking tradition that inspired his turn toward handcrafted design. Michael Aram established a home and workshop in New Delhi, where he began crafting objects ranging from tableware to furniture, all of which reflect the hand of the artisan. The tension of line, form, and meaning is a distinguishing characteristic of Aram's extraordinary designs, inspiring thoughtful appreciation and bringing a sense of ceremony in their day-to-day use. Each Michael Aram piece is handmade, so no two items are exactly alike.
