The Golden Pomegranate takes takes its inspiration from one of the most universal and ancient symbols in the world. The fruit has been prized in Judaism and across time as a representation of life, abundance, mitzvot and blessings. Materials are; Oxidized Metal and 24K Gold Plate. Each Michael Aram metal object undergoes a series of grinding, buffing, and polishing techniques. Variations or 'imperfections' in the product's finish are characteristic of the creation process. Due to this handmade nature, no two pieces are ever exactly alike. Please Note: Because the products are handmade it may take 4-6 weeks to ship.
