Milk Teal Poppy
Poppy flower meaning covers more territory than almost any other flower — sleep, remembrance, oblivion, roadside weed, bagel topping — which says something about the poppy's approach to staying on brand, which is that it doesn't. Milk teal achieves a color that exists at the exact border between teal and something else, and this piece at Chive Ceramics Studio translates it into ceramic without softening it. The poppy form here is the garden variety's fragile open cup, not Flanders fields — held in ceramic for far longer than the three days a fresh poppy actually cooperates. Year-round display with no water and no vase arrangement — it mounts flat against any wall or rests on a surface and continues being milk teal indefinitely. Artisans shape these pieces by hand at Chive Ceramics Studio, and the milk teal glaze varies slightly across each piece in the way a color this specific has to. The Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C. carries Chive ceramic wall art in its museum shop.
