Description

The Met has partnered with Harney & Sons on this unique, art-inspired tin containing loose chamomile leaves and displaying a detail from Vincent van Gogh's (Dutch, 1853–1890) Irises (1890), a celebrated still life in The Met collection.

Enjoy a peaceful moment courtesy of calming chamomile, evocative of Van Gogh's beloved bouquet in The Met collection. For this extraordinary composition, the artist sought to achieve a "harmonious and soft" effect by placing the "violet" flowers against a "pink background," though the red pigments he employed have since faded.

Ingredients: Egyptian chamomile.
