Blue Grey Gerbera Daisy
Japandi wall art in the neutral register needs a color that reads as considered rather than defaulted to — not white, not beige, not the grey that could have been chosen by anyone. Blue grey in the Japan Collection is that specific neutral: the grey with enough blue to read as connected to the Japanese palette tradition, connected to the grey of old Japanese sumi ink washes and the blue-grey of Edo-period ceramics. The Blue Grey Gerbera Daisy is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the Japan Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a blue grey glaze, shaped in the gerbera daisy form — the open, flat-petaled, perfectly symmetrical bloom that botanical breeders have been refining for a century.
The specific neutral of a collection built on restraint
Chive designed the Japan Collection in 2020 around the specific palette of the Japanese aesthetic — blues, greens, and the specific neutrals that appear in Japanese ceramics, sumi ink painting, and wabi-sabi influenced spaces. Blue grey is the Japan Collection's neutral: not the warm neutrals of the France or English Garden Collections, but the cool, ink-connected grey that reads as specifically Japanese rather than generically neutral. The gerbera daisy form — symmetrical, open, precisely petaled — holds the blue grey glaze with the cleanness that a less structured form could not provide. SFMOMA carries the Japan Collection.
