Milk Teal Poppy
It opens completely and makes no apology for it.
Build Your Floral Wall With These:
Designed to cluster naturally, like a wild garden. Choose a flower as your design anchor, then grow your custom floral wall with these companions:
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.

Wall hanging
Works on drywall, plaster, or wood panelling. Drive a small screw at a slight upward angle, leaving the head proud of the wall. Slide the keyhole slot on the back over the screw head, adjust to level. Sits flush — no visible hardware.
No stud? No problem. A drywall anchor rated for the weight works fine.
Displaying a collection
Lay everything out on the floor first. Start with your anchor piece, build outward. Keep 2–3 inches between each piece and aim for the centre of the whole arrangement to land around eye level. Use painter's tape on the wall to map positions before committing to any screws.
Table & shelf display: Equally beautiful propped on a shelf, mantle, or side table. Pair with books, candles, or a small pot.
