Zwilling JA Henckels Miyabi Kaizen 6 inch Wide Chef's Knife

Designer Lou Henry has created an heirloom quality bowl with a truly sumptuous patina by laying a bronze finish over metal.

After a supple, ruffled edge is carefully created around this richly textured 3-section tray, craftsmen hand-paint an opulent band of platinum for a breathtaking finish.

By interpreting plant forms in cast metal, Michael Aram presents work which is evocative of a natural environment transformed and redefined. Says the designer, There is a velvety luxury–an almost gothic quality – to representing orchids in blackened nickel. To me, the pieces feel seductive and graceful, yet dark and unexpected.
