Californian Poppy

Delicately hand-pressed and framed in our Netherlands studio, this vibrant Eschscholzia californica, commonly known as the Californian Poppy, brings a touch of golden warmth to any interior. Blooming in late spring and summer, its radiant orange petals are often associated with joy, hope, and a free-spirited nature, perfect for brightening your space with a sense of optimism.

In ancient symbolism, the Californian Poppy represented rest, dreams, and the gentle comfort of sleep. Named after the naturalist Johann Friedrich Eschscholtz, this wildflower became a symbol of the American West, resilient, golden, and full of promise. In folklore, it was said to bring peaceful dreams and inspire a calm, creative mind.

Framed in a custom matte black 7mm x 20mm aluminum box frame with UV-protected glass, this artwork captures a fleeting moment in nature and turns it into a lasting keepsake. Display it in your home as a daily reminder to embrace joy, creativity, and the beauty of living in the moment.

To preserve its natural hues, we recommend keeping your pressed flower frame out of direct sunlight. Over time, while the color may soften, the charm of its silhouette will remain beautifully intact.
