A 30th anniversary gift should probably match the mood of thirty years together, which is either very funny or very moving depending on the couple, and the Blue Noir Pompon Dahlia manages both at once. Blue Noir is a color that belongs in a French film where nobody explains anything and the ending is not the one you were hoping for. The Pompon Dahlia, meanwhile, is relentlessly cheerful — round, full, entirely satisfied with itself in a way Blue Noir clearly did not see coming. They ended up together regardless, and thirty years in, that is basically the whole plot. Every dahlia is shaped by hand at Chive Ceramics Studio, so the cheerfulness and the color both hold their edges permanently, unlike whatever the cinematographer was hoping for. Norfolk Botanical Garden has carried this piece in its shop for years, proof that even a moody French color eventually finds a well-lit room to sit in.
