Michael Michaud delicately transmutes the beautiful forms of nature into gold through casting and crafting with bronze and glass.
This range celebrates the comely pear. As well as giving a subtle signal of the festive season, the pear was considered a sacred fruit in Greek mythology, and is even a symbol of immortality in China.

Michael Michaud
Creating moulds directly from nature, Michael Michaud’s exquisitely detailed pieces are made using a process similar to lost-wax casting, with actual plant matter encased, then heated and burnt away to form his moulds.
Michaud’s natural forms and textures are complimented with soft patinas on bronze, accented with pearls, beads, coral and stones.
