Burnt Yellow Strawflower
Kitchen wall art requires a specific kind of material confidence — it lives alongside steam, cooking smells, and the kind of daily scrutiny that most wall art never faces, because most wall art is in rooms people pass through rather than rooms they inhabit for hours at a time. The Burnt Yellow Strawflower is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the English Garden Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a burnt yellow glaze that is unaffected by humidity, heat, or the aggressive overhead light of a kitchen where someone has been cooking since 7am.
Vintage botanical wall art with 25 years of decision-making behind it
The strawflower has the natural quality of something dried — the papery petals, the layered rings, the dense center that anchors the whole form. In ceramic, the burnt yellow glaze sits on those layered rings and creates the warm, earthy quality of a dried botanical specimen translated into a permanent material. The vintage botanical wall art tradition is built on objects like this — forms that reference the natural world in materials that outlast the natural world. It always rains at Chelsea. The team has known this since year one. The discovery of Pimm's — which the English use to manage the rain at outdoor events — improved the experience of the wet tent significantly. The Burnt Yellow Strawflower has been on the stand through all of this. It still has the warm, earthy quality it had when it first went up.
The Museum of Fine Arts Boston carries the English Garden Collection. The Chrysler Museum of Art stocks it. The High Museum in Atlanta carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. Art museums in major US cities have been making consistent purchasing decisions about this collection. Chive has been designing and making ceramic flowers in Toronto since 1999. the Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens stocks it.
A gift for a boss who is leaving for somewhere better
The Burnt Yellow Strawflower is the gift for a boss who is leaving because it is the kind of object that establishes the new office as a place where good decisions are made. It ships in a Chive gift box. It hangs with one screw in 90 seconds. The Museum of Fine Arts Boston carries the collection. The boss in the new position gets wall art from the same collection an art institution with a 150-year collecting history chose to carry.
