Mist
You can taste it in your mind. The gravad lax melts on your tongue with the fresh lemon and grassy taste of the dill. But dill as the leading role in a still life? You’ve probably never looked at it that way before. With umbels like low-hanging clouds that spread a soft mist over a vast landscape. This flower symbolizes freshness and serenity as if purifying the air with each bloom.
Our latest work takes its name from the white dill, which is also called Green Mist.
MIST bears the characteristic signature of Chinnoe & Vlemmix: peace and space with a calm beauty in balance. Porcelain bowl is available at Bloemenatelier Krijn Verboom in Rotterdam.
Dahlia & Paeonia
Our new work is called Dahlia & Paeonia. Although the Paeonia originally comes from China, both have a Greek connection. Like Hêra and Hélena, they are Greek girls’ names. Moreover, the name of the peony also originates from Greek mythology.
The peony is named after a student of Asclepius, the Greek God of medicine and healing. This student was called Paeon. He discovered the medicinal power of the roots of the Paeonia, with its hemostatic and antipyretic effect. The Dahlia, however, like ‘her sisters’, does not play a role in Greek mythology.
No profound thoughts here, Dahlia simply means flower, which in our opinion is a very beautiful flower!
This beautiful vase is from the collection of Bloemenatelier Krijn Verboom in Rotterdam.
Hêra & Heléna
We proudly present HÊRA. Although our signature remains recognisable, spacious,
tranquil, minimalistic and magically realistic, we have played slightly differently with a subtle use of light.
This time with a slightly dark melancholic result. In the light of the night, which does not become completely dark anywhere, the white Hydrangea shines in full glory.
We call her HELÉNA. Not without a reason. The brightly shining Autumn flower Helenium plays a leading role in our latest work. A bit of twilight, no zone, mysterious but bright. With a finishing touch of the butterfly named Troides Helena, who happily settles under the screen of the Dill.
