Pomegranate Paperweight

The New York Botanical Garden in association with Lunt Silversmiths, a leader in innovative silver design, has developed a distinctive collection of tableware, decorative accessories, and gifts inspired by some of the finest examples of botanical art in the Rare Book Collections of the Garden’s LuEsther T. Mertz Library. Combining beautiful 18th-century botanical imagery with a modern sensibility, these exquisitely crafted pieces are objects to be treasured as heirlooms.

The silver plate pomegranate paperweight is inspired by the superb images of pomegranates by master botanical illustrator Georg Dionysius Ehret in Plantae Selectae (Nuremberg: 1750-73). Its sculptural beauty makes it a striking ornament for your desk. It comes in a beautiful gift box with The New York Botanical Garden logo.
