CLASSIC COLLECTION
Peony Green
The green peony that is 12 inches and has been the Classic Collection's most abundantly scaled botanical since before abundance was a design category.
Description
Classic Collection ceramic wall flowers include the green peony at 12-inch scale because the Classic Collection is where the large forms and the interesting glazes find each other without being required to explain themselves to a themed palette. The Green Peony is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the Classic Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a green glaze, shaped in the large fully double peony form — the same abundance that the Japan Collection's navy peony has at maximum blue, here in the green that reads as the Classic Collection deciding that peonies belong in green the same way they belong anywhere else.
The green that earns the largest peony form in the Classic Collection
The Classic Collection operates on the principle that a glaze either earns its form or it doesn't. Green on the 12-inch peony form earns it — the large fully double petal structure holds the green glaze in its layers with the variation between shadow and light that the color requires to read as specific rather than generic. Briana's glaze work in the Classic Collection has been producing greens since the collection launched in 1999. The 12-inch green peony is what happens when the glaze has developed the depth that the form requires. The Huntington Library carries the Classic Collection — an institution with substantial peony gardens that has evaluated the ceramic version and found it worth stocking.
The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens carries the Classic Collection. The Denver Botanic Gardens stocks it. The Brooklyn Botanic Garden carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. Botanical institutions with actual peony collections have independently evaluated and chosen this piece.
A gift for the person who wants the largest ceramic peony in a color peonies don't typically inhabit

How to Hang Ceramic Flowers?
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.
