The Butterfly Ginkgo collection celebrates the representation of flora as fauna. 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 handcraftsmanship, each piece is rendered in solid material with hand-etched cocoon-shaped vessels. The pieces in the collection are a tour de force of the handcrafted process.
