The Dahlia Collection captures a sense of romance, intricacy, and opulence. In the Victorian era, Dahlias were given as a symbol of love and devotion. In certain pieces, Michael has chosen to contrast the radiant golden blooms against black granite and enameled stainless steel, evoking a mysterious sensuality. When found in nature, the petals’ perfect symmetry and spiraling pattern embody the Golden Ratio.

“When you hold a Dahlia in your hand, it is like seeing the whole universe. Each interconnected petal, perfectly imperfect and in harmony with the next, comes together to create something magnificent.” - M.

Michael is highly inspired by his surroundings and often makes sculptures of objects that might otherwise be overlooked in the everyday. Nature is his biggest muse, as is the handmade process.
