Ceramic Flower Polyp Yellow Medium
Classic Collection ceramic wall flowers include the yellow polyp because the polyp form reads differently in yellow than in orange — the warm yellow brings the aquatic reference toward the sunlit zone of shallow water rather than the vivid orange of tropical coral, and the medium scale makes the polyp form approachable rather than dominant. The Yellow Polyp Medium is a handmade ceramic piece from the Classic Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a yellow glaze, shaped in the polyp form at medium scale — the radially arranged tubular structure that Chive invented for the wall, in the color that reads as sea anemone in morning light.
The middle polyp in a Classic Collection that operates on no one's palette system but its own
The Classic Collection has three polyp pieces: large orange, medium yellow, small blue. They were not designed as a set. They are what happened when the polyp form and the available glazes found each other at three different scales and produced three different things that all work. Yellow at medium scale on the polyp form reads as the most accessible of the three — the color and scale that makes the form inviting rather than demanding. The Maritime Aquarium in Connecticut carries the Classic Collection. Their institutional context provides the confirmation that the medium yellow polyp earns its place in aquatic visual culture.
The Maritime Aquarium carries the Classic Collection. The Audubon Aquarium in New Orleans stocks it. The Monterey Bay Aquarium carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. Chive has been designing and making ceramic flowers in Toronto since 1999.
A gift for the person who wants the polyp form at a scale that works in most rooms
The Yellow Polyp Medium ships in a Chive gift box. It hangs with one screw in 90 seconds. The Maritime Aquarium carries it. The person who wants the Classic Collection's most original form at an accessible scale receives the medium yellow from the same collection three aquariums chose.
