Profile
Inspired by the rich metalworking traditions of New Delhi, designer Michael Aram creates exquisite, handcrafted pieces of home décor that reference both the natural and ethereal realms. In his sleek flagship store, walls made of cast aluminum tiles and painted-black brick focus attention on his intricate metal dishes, platters, and silverware. Art and nature lovers alike are drawn to the signature Earth collection, filled with polished aluminum leaf trays, nickel-plated vine pitchers, and bark vases with an oxidized copper finish. Meanwhile, the Water collection’s stainless-steel lotus-blossom bowls and glistening river-rock candleholders captivate the Monet-minded. A single row of glass display drawers encourages patrons to take a more hands-on approach in examining elaborate pieces of twig-work cutlery, hand-polished serving sets, and other silver-plated tableware. More whimsical pieces from the Dream collection include the popular cat-and-mouse cheese board and gold-plated bee stirrers.
