Avocado Green Unicorn Zinnia

Zinnia flower meaning circles around lasting friendship and the remembrance of people no longer in the room—qualities that outlast most flower arrangements by a wide margin. The studio remains unapologetic about how far the Avocado Green Unicorn Zinnia takes that tradition. The Unicorn is the boldest variety the zinnia family produces: ruffled, layered petals that stack outward and have no particular interest in the concept of restraint. Avocado green pushes that already-emphatic form further—there are quieter palette choices available, and none of them would have been right. No water, no maintenance, no gradual fading over a long autumn of not quite enough light on a windowsill that does not cooperate. Artisans shape each one by hand at Chive Ceramics Studio, founded in 2004.
