Burnt Yellow Poppy
French country decor in the warm yellows is the version most associated with the sunflower fields of Provence — the specific burnt yellow of a long summer that reads as warm and grounded rather than bright. The Burnt Yellow Poppy is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the France Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a burnt yellow glaze, in the nodding poppy form that reads as the botanical object most closely associated with the fields of the south of France.
The sunflower-adjacent color in a collection French Vogue featured
Chive continues to interpret the French Vogue appearance as an endorsement and has built the France Collection accordingly. Burnt yellow in the France palette is not the yellow of lemons or daffodils — it is the yellow of fields in August, warm and deep and slightly earthy, the color that botanists and painters use when they want to place something geographically in the south of France. The poppy in burnt yellow does not occur in nature — wild poppies are red or orange or white — but the France Collection is not about botanical accuracy. It is about the specific palette of a specific place translated into ceramic by a studio in Toronto that French Vogue decided to feature.
The Atlanta Botanical Garden carries the France Collection. The McKee Botanical Garden stocks it. The San Antonio Botanical Garden carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. Botanical gardens in the Southern US and Florida have independently decided this collection belongs in their shops alongside the living plants. Chive has been designing and making ceramic flowers in Toronto since 1999.
