The Butterfly Ginkgo Collection celebrates the representation of flora as fauna. Michael's fascination with a particular type of ginkgo tree , the Ginkgo Biloba, or "Butterfly Ginkgo", which grows with a double leaf reminiscent of a butterfly's wings, gave rise to a fantasia image of the plant. Executed at the highest level of handcraftsmanship, each piece is rendered in solid brass with hand etched cocoon-shaped vessels. The pieces in the collection are a tour de force of the handcrafted process, capturing the poetic spirit that is so deeply indicative of Michael's work.
"The first time I saw this tree, it literally looked like it had been completely overtaken by butterflies... as if they would all take flight the moment I walked too close or made a noise. The idea that the leaves could evoke the beauty of butterflies was magical to me, like trees that can metamorphose from flora to fauna in the blink of an eye."

Kym Pelcher
Chief Design Officer and Founder
I have had a love for design since I can remember. I worked as a Home Décor and Furniture buyer for the prestigious Fortunoff in New York while in college, and continued as a buyer there for 14 years until I left to begin my design business. My dream was to one day bring my love for both retail merchandising and interior design together, and alas, Splurge was born!
While nothing compares to the experience of being in our retail space in Pittsburgh, our website is a collection of our favorites from the shop.
I truly hope that you enjoy spending time perusing the site as much as I enjoy bringing it to you!
