What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Michael Aram Black Orchid Napkin Holder for its stunning aesthetic and sculptural artistry. Reviewers frequently describe it as a true work of art that instantly elevates any dining space, highlighting the superior craftsmanship evident in the oxidized finish and intricate metalwork. The substantial weight conveys high quality, justifying the premium price for those seeking a statement piece. While the vertical design offers space saving elegance, users note it works best with standard napkins.

The product successfully merges high end artistry with practical utility, resulting in high satisfaction among buyers prioritizing design excellence.
Know before you buy
This holder is designed for standard square luncheon napkins. Because it is a vertical stand, it works best with napkins that have enough structure to stand upright without folding over.
Wipe the marble base with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately to prevent water spots. For the brass and enamel orchids, use a soft, dry cloth to dust; avoid harsh chemical cleaners that could damage the finish.
Yes, the polished marble base provides a solid, weighted foundation that keeps the holder stable on your countertop or dining table, even when it is not fully stocked with napkins.
The natural brass is designed to age gracefully over time. If you prefer to keep it bright, you can use a high-quality brass polish, but many owners prefer the subtle patina that develops with use.
The marble base is polished and smooth, but as with any heavy decorative object, we recommend placing it on a soft surface or using a coaster if you are concerned about potential surface scratches.
