Indoor hanging planters designed to look like they belong

We have been designing ceramic pots in Toronto since 1999. The hanging planter collections — Mofo, Mini Mofo, Bobbin, Thimble, Hanging Aerium, and Virago — are designed to work in the kinds of spaces where the alternative from a box store would be immediately obvious.

What trailing plants actually want

Trailing plants have a specific problem. They want to go somewhere and most rooms have decided they are not allowed. A Pothos on a shelf just sits there looking resentful. Put it in a Bobbin three feet off the ground and it goes where it intended to go all along, which turns out to be considerably further than anyone expected.

Why this collection exists

Three people in the studio spent an afternoon looking at ceramic hanging planters online and could not get past the rope. Always the same rope. Always the same off-white pot that had been designed by nobody in particular for a wall that did not exist. We made ours because the alternative was buying something we would be embarrassed to sell, and embarrassment, as it turns out, is an excellent design brief. Thirty-six designs across six collections. Each one comes with a cord. None of them look like they came from a warehouse in a country we have never visited.

Chive Studio has been designing and making ceramic and porcelain plant pots in Toronto since 1999. Our pots are stocked in the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, the Art Institute of Chicago, SFMOMA, the Royal Ontario Museum, and more than 200 art galleries and botanical institutions across North America and the UK. The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens has carried Chive pots for over a decade. So has Denver Botanic Gardens and the New York Botanical Garden. The same studio also designs ceramic wall flowers — handmade in the same tradition, hung with one screw. We have exhibited at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show — recipient of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 5-star booth award, won twice in 13 consecutive years of exhibiting. Designed in Toronto, made by hand since 1999.

Hanging Planter FAQ's

What are hanging planters?

Hanging planters are pots designed to suspend from a ceiling, hook, or wall rather than sit on a surface. Chive's ceramic hanging planters come in six collections — Mofo, Mini Mofo, Bobbin, Thimble, Hanging Aerium, and Virago — each with a hanging cord included.

Are Chive hanging planters indoor hanging planters?

Yes. All six collections are designed for indoor use. They are ceramic, which means they are not built for rain, frost, or anything a Canadian winter would do to them.

What plants work in wall hanging planters?

Trailing plants are the obvious answer — Pothos, Philodendron, String of Pearls, Tradescantia. Anything that wants to go down rather than up will be considerably happier in a hanging planter than on a shelf pretending to be interested in the ceiling.

What size are the hanging planters?

The six collections cover a range of sizes from the Thimble at the smaller end through to the Virago. If you know the size of your plant's current pot, that is the number to match.

Do the hanging planters come with a cord?

Yes. Every Chive hanging planter ships with a hanging cord. We mention this because we once bought a hanging planter that did not, and we have not recovered.

Are these modern hanging planters?

They are ceramic, made without molds, and designed in Toronto. Whether that qualifies as modern depends on who is asking. They do not look like anything available at a box store, which is the more useful answer.

Can I use these as wall hanging planters?

The Mofo, Mini Mofo, Bobbin, and Thimble are designed to hang from a hook or ceiling mount. The Hanging Aerium has a wall-mount option. Check the individual product pages for mounting details.

Do Chive hanging planters come in white?

Several designs across the six collections are available in white and off-white glazes. The full colour range is on the individual collection pages — white hanging planters are in there, alongside considerably more interesting options if you are open to them.
