Michael Aram Butterfly Ginkgo Decorative Jar Candle

Michael Aram Signature Home Scents are weightless, subtle and universal, yet exuberant and complex. These fragrances take their inspiration from the same organic motifs that made the artist famous.

The Butterfly Ginkgo candle is inspired by a variety of ginkgo tree, known as the #double;ginkgo biloba,#double; where the leaves grow in such a manner that they are suggestive of butterflies. There is something very poetic about the idea of the ginkgo leaves metamorphosing into butterflies which land back on the branches that bore them.

From Michael Aram, the Butterfly Ginkgo candle features:

• oxidized bronze lid
• approx. 4.5(H) x 3.75(D)#double; glass jar
• approx. 13.5-oz. soy wax
• approx. 40-hour burn time

Imported and made in USA.

Michael Aram is an award-winning American Armenian artist who has dedicated his career to craft-based design. Inspired by a trip to India at age 25, he established a second home and studio there, where he continues to draw creative inspiration today.

Trained as a painter, sculptor, and art historian, Michael has neatly applied his diverse background to the decorative arts. Lyrical and often witty, his work encompasses a wide range of media and reveals a rich and variant source of inspiration – nature, mythology, narrative storytelling, and purified form.

It is the enduring fusion of these ideals – originality, narrative, and craftsmanship – that has become the hallmark of this gifted artist.
