JAPAN COLLECTION
Peach Mocha Cornflower
The cornflower that is peach mocha and is the Japan Collection's warmest and most autumnal piece.
Description
Japandi wall art in the Japan Collection includes warm earthy tones because the Japanese aesthetic tradition is not exclusively cool — the Japanese palette includes the warm earthen tones of dried flowers, autumn foliage, and the specific warm brown-pink of Japanese wabi-sabi ceramics. Peach mocha is one of those warm earthy tones: the color between warm peach and warm mocha, the specific autumn-adjacent warm that reads as earthy and organic and specifically Japanese in its restraint. The Peach Mocha Cornflower is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the Japan Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a peach mocha glaze, shaped in the cornflower form — the small, multi-petaled, tubular-floret bloom that is one of the most characteristically delicate forms in the botanical calendar.
The warm earthy Japanese autumn on a characteristically delicate form
Chive designed the Japan Collection in 2020 with the full range of the Japanese aesthetic palette — the cool blues and greens that dominate, and the warm earthy tones that ground them. Peach mocha is the Japan Collection's warm autumn anchor: the color of dried flowers in a Japanese ikebana arrangement, of the warm brown-peach that appears in the autumn foliage palette that Japanese aesthetic tradition regards with specific reverence. The cornflower form holds the peach mocha glaze in its small, multi-floret structure with a delicacy that reads as compatible with the Japanese appreciation of small, carefully observed forms. The Getty Museum carries the Japan Collection.

How to Hang Ceramic Flowers?
One discovers these flowers, each bearing a secret: a tiny keyhole nestled in the back, waiting for its destiny. The ritual feels almost predetermined - reaching into that dusty jar of orphaned screws, the ones squirreled away over countless home projects. Those odd bits of metal, collected like precious coins, finally finding their purpose. A quick twist of the drill, and there hangs beauty, supported by hardware whose previous life remains a mystery.
