Peridot Green Maiden Lotus
Organic modern decor is a category defined by forms that look as though they emerged from a natural system rather than a design meeting — and the Peridot Green Maiden Lotus qualifies on both counts. Four and a half inches across. One screw, no water, no maintenance. The maiden lotus is a bloom captured at the stage between bud and full open — not closed, not spread, something between, which horticulturalists call the maiden stage and which ceramic is the only material that will hold there indefinitely. In peridot green, the color of something that has decided exactly where it is and does not intend to move further in either direction. The studio has been producing lotus forms since 2004; the maiden variety was introduced specifically because the in-between stage is the most formally interesting and the least reproducible in a living plant. It cannot stay. The ceramic version can. Carried by the Monterey Bay Aquarium, part of the studio’s museum retail collection.
