Ceramic Flower Wall Art Lettuce Grey XL 5

$118.25

In times of crisis, I've found that people tend to gravitate toward the unusual and inexplicable. Take my sister, who once devoted six weeks to learning ventriloquism using nothing but YouTube videos and a sock puppet named Kenneth. But my current fixation – a massive grey ceramic flower that could double as a shield in medieval combat – seems almost reasonable by comparison. "It's the exact color of a thunderstorm," I told my mother over FaceTime, tilting my phone to capture its cement-like grandeur. "The artist clearly channeled all the drama of a cloudy day in Seattle, though it mostly reminds me of the time you accidentally washed Dad's white dress shirts with your new charcoal yoga pants." The piece came with a keyhole mount that my father said made it look like "modern art having an identity crisis." But there was something magnificent about its brutalist charm, its complete disregard for subtlety. I mounted it in the kitchen, replacing a vintage advertisement for canned peas that my brother had rescued from a dumpster behind an antique store. "It would be perfect in a nursery," I suggested to my husband, who was busy pretending not to notice that I'd rearranged the kitchen again. "That's what you said about the collection of preserved butterflies you bought at that estate sale," he reminded me. "The ones that gave our nephew nightmares." But this was different. The flower had transformed our kitchen from a mere food preparation space into what felt like dining inside a Georgia O'Keeffe painting – if O'Keeffe had worked exclusively in grayscale and been really, really into oversized wall decorations that confused dinner guests.

Curated collection

One glances at ceramic flowers and the mind starts spinning like a deranged mathematician at a pottery sale. Thirty-one million possibilities lurk in those delicate petals - enough combinations to drive even the most dedicated decorator to drink. Through countless installations, watching clients wobble between choices while clutching paint swatches and muttering about feng shui, certain arrangements have emerged as clear winners. Here they are, tested and proven, saving countless hours of existential design crisis.

Looks Great on Tables

Originally destined for tabletops, fate intervened when two domestic goddesses - Oprah and Martha themselves - declared these babies belonged on walls. Who could argue with that kind of decorating royalty?

Pretty Boxes

Each delicate ceramic blossom nestles in a box worthy of its artistry, wrapped with the kind of care that makes gift-givers beam with pride. Making others look thoughtful comes naturally around here.

Can be Used on a Wall

One discovers the most elegant of solutions: a humble keyhole adorns the reverse, yearning for nothing more than a single screw. Into drywall it slides, defying both gravity and common sense. Voilà - sweet victory.

Ceramic Flower Box Set

Pretty Flowers in Pretty Boxes

After eleven years of toiling, arranging, and obsessing over more than a hundred varieties of flowers, one learns that the postal service harbors a peculiar vendetta against beauty. Like a jealous god waiting to smite anything delicate or refined. But victory comes in the form of sturdy, elegant boxes - the kind that make a recipient feel like royalty, while secretly being fortress-strong enough to survive even the most spiteful mail handler's wrath.

Endless Combinations

One might imagine the English Garden ceramic flower collection emerged from some divine intervention, each piece destined to complement another like arranged marriages in a Jane Austen novel. The designers, those smug bastards, eliminated all possibility of aesthetic disaster. What generous gods, taking away the burden of poor taste. But now comes the true hell: drowning in an ocean of endless perfection, where every choice leads to another equally magnificent possibility. Standing there, paralyzed by beauty, cursing those clever devils who removed all traces of ugliness, leaving nothing but an endless maze of flawless combinations.

How to Hang

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.
