An instantly recognisable shape: sculptural, ceramic Poppy Seed Head for outdoors or the home (~10cm or 4 inches tall)

Description

An instantly recognisable shape! These sculptural ceramic poppy seed heads are made out of stoneware clay. They are glazed in a wide variety of colours. The glaze of the crown is a metallic bronze. The middle is adorned with sparkling green or blue glass.

Each seed head is faceted and sculpted individually by hand: a focal point with jewel-like quality! The ideal gift for keen gardeners or people who are hard to buy for!

The ceramic poppy seed heads are hollow, about 10 cm (~4 inches) tall. They can be displayed outdoors for example in a planter or in a flower bed. Each piece is securely placed on top of a copper tube (~40 cm/ ~16 inches, included in the price). The poppy seed head is frost-proof and can stay outdoors all year round. Ideal for providing that extra bit of colour for your surroundings.

Alternatively you can place them on display indoors as treasured object d’art placed in a vase or plant pot or on a log. 

Each piece is safely packed first with protective bubble-wrap surrounded by a corrugated cardboard roll. The pieces are then placed in a sturdy box. This is creating a double-walled cardboard package. The parcel is filled with air-pockets and/or packing peanuts, so nothing can move inside the box.

Wherever possible I use biodegradable packing materials.   I also re-use any packing materials wherever possible. I ship pieces via courier or Royal Mail 1st class.

Every single piece is hand-made! It has been touched up to 40 times during the making process; pieces might differ from the picture seen here

    I ordered two of this gorgeous poppy seed head one in lime-green and one in a mauve as Mother’s Day presents, stunning! My parcel arrived packed with care via courier. Great communication throughout my choices and transit. Thanks Anja so happy I added a rose for my own garden.

    I’ve got Anja’s poppy seed heads dotted around my garden, in various colours and sizes. They are a beautiful splash of colour against the green in summer and especially gorgeous during the grey winter. After quite a number of years outside they still look as good as ever.

    I ordered a purple poppy seed head for a friend’s wedding gift as they both love their garden and they were so happy with it! I was so impressed that I ordered a pink glaze poppy sead head for our garden and it’s just lovely! They’re so beautifully hand crafted and it has cheered up our garden for the winter! I love it Anja, thank you so much! You’re so talented! Corinne xx

    We just purchased 5 of the poppy seed heads – 1 of the winter ghost and 4 of the others. The colours are gorgeous. They look so pretty in a pot by the front door.
    We have never seen anything quite like them before and love them!

    Luv, luv, luv the poppy seed heads and the other amazing works of art by Anja. I have two displayed indoors in a large glass vase filled with small stones. Over the past couple of years I have added a thistle and a rosebud. The display looks just wonderful. I have just ordered an allium and cannot wait to add it to my collection. Thank you for making such wonderful pieces of art Anja, just beautiful in shape and colour 🤩

    I purchased a beautiful yellow poppyhead for my garden at the 2022 Arts and Crafts show at Blackthorpe Barn. I have been promising myself two more to spread around – the one I have already makes me smile every time I see it from my kitchen window. So today I have treated myself to a white one and a plum one; I am so looking forward to receiving them. I do really love your work, Anja.

    I ordered a beautiful blue poppy seed head as a birthday gift. Anja was super-helpful with the order as I was abroad at the time. She packaged it up an included a handwritten note and ensured it was delivered in time. The recipient was delighted with her present. Thanks so much Anja.
