Burnt Yellow Tundra Carnation

Carnation meaning has never been complicated: steady, dependable, the flower doing its job at the grocery store checkout without needing to reinvent itself for anyone. Our Burnt Yellow Tundra Carnation borrows nothing from actual tundra creatures except the name — the resemblance ends where the ceramic begins. Real carnations hold their ruffled shape for maybe two weeks in water before wilting sets in, but this one keeps its structure indefinitely, with no vase and no stems trimmed at an angle every few days. Hang it solo above a desk, or cluster it with warmer tones from the English Garden line for a wall that reads curated instead of accidental. Artisans shape these pieces by hand at Chive Ceramics Studio, pressing each ruffle before the burnt yellow glaze goes on. Chive has been exhibiting at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show since 2013, winning the show's 5-star booth award twice.
