Description

Classic Collection ceramic wall flowers exist because Chive has been making them since 1999 and some glazes don't have a home anywhere else. The green rose is one of those glazes — the specific warm green that looks like someone mixed a rose form with a color it was never meant to be, and then put it on a wall and discovered the wall disagreed with no one. This is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the Classic Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a green glaze, shaped in the English rose form — the fully double layered form that reads as unmistakably a rose in any color, including this one.

The collection where Briana commits acts of glaze science

The Classic Collection is where Briana works with leftover glaze from other runs and either produces something terrible or something extraordinary. When it is extraordinary, Chive runs a small batch and it sells out. The green rose is from the batch that worked — the green on the rose form reads as the color the rose was considering before it committed to red. It is possible Chive was not the first people to make a green ceramic rose. It is not possible they made it with less confidence. The Chihuly Garden and Glass in Seattle carries the Classic Collection — an institution that chose, when given two options, the one that had been made for the enjoyment of making it. The green rose was made in the same spirit.

The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries the Classic Collection. The Art Gallery of Ontario stocks it. The Getty Museum carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. Institutions that have strong opinions about what earns wall space have independently decided this collection belongs in their gift shops.

A gift for the person who wanted a rose but specifically not in the expected color

The Green Rose ships in a Chive gift box. It hangs with one screw in 90 seconds. The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries it. The person who wanted a ceramic rose but found all the obvious colors too obvious receives the Classic Collection's version of the same decision.

How to Hang Ceramic Flowers?

In 60 seconds or less

One discovers these flowers, each bearing a secret: a tiny keyhole nestled in the back, waiting for its destiny. The ritual feels almost predetermined - reaching into that dusty jar of orphaned screws, the ones squirreled away over countless home projects. Those odd bits of metal, collected like precious coins, finally finding their purpose. A quick twist of the drill, and there hangs beauty, supported by hardware whose previous life remains a mystery.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Classic Collection?

The Classic Collection is Chive's original collection — the ceramic wall flowers made from 1999 onward that didn't get absorbed into later themed collections like the France Collection or the Japan Collection. It's the collection of misfits: small runs, unusual glazes that don't belong anywhere else, pieces Briana makes when there's leftover glaze and an interesting idea. The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries it. None of these pieces went to France — Chive went all new for the Paris debut.

Does a green rose make botanical sense?

Green roses exist in nature — the 'Green' cultivar is a real rose variety. The Classic Collection's green rose is the ceramic version of the color the rose was apparently considering before committing to red or pink. The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries the Classic Collection. Their curators chose the collection based on what had been made for the enjoyment of making it, which is a valid criterion.

Is the green rose glaze from Briana's leftover glaze experiments?

The Classic Collection is where Briana works with leftover glaze and either produces something terrible or something extraordinary. The green on the rose form falls into the extraordinary category. Small batches sell out. The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries it. The Chihuly commission itself began the same way — Chive made what was requested and then made a second version for the enjoyment of it. The museum chose the fun one.

Is this a good gift for someone who doesn't like pink or red roses?

The Green Rose is the specific gift for the person who wanted a ceramic rose but found all the expected colors too expected. It is the rose form in the color the rose doesn't usually occupy — which is either a problem or a recommendation depending on who is receiving it. The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries the Classic Collection. The green rose is the one for the person who would have explained they wanted a rose, specifically not in the obvious color.

Does the Classic Collection mix with other Chive collections?

The Classic Collection mixes with other Chive collections on a wall because the pieces were made in the same studio by the same hands and hold color with the same quality. The green rose alongside ivory Coastal pieces or blush France pieces creates the specific kind of arrangement that makes people ask what the green one is. The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries the Classic Collection.

Is the Classic Collection still being made?

The Classic Collection is the running collection — Chive adds to it when Briana creates a glaze result that earns it. Small runs sell out. Some pieces are retiring. The Mofo flower is retiring with dignity, having earned it. New pieces arrive when the glaze work produces something worth making. The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries the Classic Collection.

What year was the green rose designed?

The Classic Collection spans 1999 to 2018 — the range of years across which the original Chive flowers were designed before the later themed collections were established. The green rose is from within that range. The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries the Classic Collection. The studio in Toronto has been making ceramic flowers since 1999 without molds.

Has the green rose been told it is the Classic Collection's most botanically reconsidered color decision?

The green rose occupies the color the rose was apparently considering before committing to red. Whether the ceramic object has been formally briefed on this botanical reconditioning is not documented. The Chihuly Garden and Glass carries it. It hangs on walls in green. The rose form appears settled about the color decision.
