Artist Michele Oka Doner Spruces Up Christofle

Cruising down Madison Avenue after visiting the new Upper East Side Marianne Boesky Gallery, I noticed the chic duo, PR maven Andrea Schwan and artist Michele Oka Doner, standing inside the Christofle store.
Oka Doner has applied her organic aesthetic to several silver and jewelry items she designed for Christofle. These include a rather stunning silver collar, cast from palm fronds and named the Palmaceae. Oka Doner was wearing one. It retails for $2165.
