Build Your Floral Wall With These:

Designed to cluster naturally, like a wild garden. Choose a flower as your design anchor, then grow your custom floral wall with these companions:

The Ceramic Flower Mum Teal is a Classic Collection ceramic wall flower — teal, handmade, permanent, and requiring no water, no soil, and no follow-up. Teal is the color that shows up at a party knowing exactly one person and leaves having talked to everyone. It is sociable in a way that other colors simply are not — not as loud as orange, not as aloof as navy, not as eager as yellow. The mum in teal has been working the room since it arrived and has no intention of stopping. The Classic Collection is the original Chive line, built from onward, and the Ceramic Flower Mum Teal has been in it long enough that it no longer needs to explain itself to anyone.

How to hang & display

Wall hanging

Works on drywall, plaster, or wood panelling. Drive a small screw at a slight upward angle, leaving the head proud of the wall. Slide the keyhole slot on the back over the screw head, adjust to level. Sits flush — no visible hardware.

No stud? No problem. A drywall anchor rated for the weight works fine.

Displaying a collection

Lay everything out on the floor first. Start with your anchor piece, build outward. Keep 2–3 inches between each piece and aim for the centre of the whole arrangement to land around eye level. Use painter's tape on the wall to map positions before committing to any screws.

Table & shelf display: Equally beautiful propped on a shelf, mantle, or side table. Pair with books, candles, or a small pot.

What people are saying

A Mum in Teal

The Museum of Flight in Seattle carries Chive ceramic flowers. An institution dedicated to the idea that the most ambitious things humans have ever made deserve to be studied and kept. Teal is the color that shows up at a party knowing exactly one person and leaves having talked to everyone. It is sociable in a way other colors simply are not. The mum in teal has the same quality. The Museum of Flight chose it. Teal, as far as we can tell, has been pleased about this.

Three ways to display it

Stunning table accent

Prop on a table, shelf, or beside books.

A gift that arrives beautifully

Beautiful Signature box. No wrapping needed.

Ceramic Flower Mum Teal 11 ceramic wall flower styled on wall — Classic Collection — Chive Studio Toronto

Part of the Classic Collection

The Classic collection never bothered chasing whatever trend was passing through — a rose that looked correct in 1974 and will look correct in 2074, glazed in colors that refuse to change. Every piece trades novelty for something worth keeping. This mum was glazed teal against its usual warmer palette, testing whether the dense petal form still read clearly in a cooler register.

Explore the Ceramic Flower Peony Orange 6.

Two Ways to Display

From a 'just a sprout' 3" to an 'I'm practically a tree' 8", Chive Minute pots are the perfect pots to grow with your green ambitions. Because plants may start small, but dreams should be as big as your pot collection

White Porcelain Succulent Garden Dish - Moog - handmade by Chive Studio Toronto

Complete the Look

This teal mum's dense petal form pairs well with a low, wide base rather than anything tall, and the Moog Succulent Dish White gives it exactly that kind of grounded footing. The white stays neutral enough not to compete with the cooler glaze, landing well on a shelf that wants one considered, low-profile piece rather than a tall statement.

Cooler Than the Usual Mum Palette

Each piece in the Classic line is designed to work alongside the others. Wall flowers, plant pots, ceramic accents — same handmade finish, same uncompromising standard. Browse the full Classic Collection and find the combination that works for your wall.

Frequently asked questions

What does a chrysanthemum mean as a gift?

The mum has been chosen for this collection because it makes a specific kind of sense on a wall — permanent, handmade, and requiring no interpretation to be immediately understood as the right choice.

Does a ceramic wall flower need special hardware to hang?

No special hardware. One standard screw and ninety seconds is the complete installation process for every Classic Collection ceramic wall flower. The keyhole mount on the back is designed to hang cleanly on a single screw — the same way you would hang any framed piece. The Mum Teal at 11 inches is substantial enough to work as a single piece or as the anchor of a larger arrangement.

What is a good gift for a nurse?

A gift for a nurse should be beautiful, lasting, and entirely unrelated to anything clinical.

What is a good gift for a hostess?

A hostess gift should be memorable enough to stay in the house after the dinner party is over.It is the gift that is still on the wall at the next dinner party, and the one after that.

What makes good bedroom wall decor?

Good bedroom wall decor should be something you are glad to see first thing in the morning. The Ceramic Flower Mum Teal from the Classic Collection is a teal ceramic wall flower that hangs on one screw and stays there permanently. It is not trying to do anything except be exactly what it is, which turns out to be enough.

Has the Teal Mum finished working the room yet?

It has not finished. It may never finish. The Teal Mum arrived at the wall knowing exactly one screw and left having spoken to everyone in the room. This is its nature. It is not a character flaw. It is the entire point.

What is art deco wall decor?

Art deco wall decor is characterized by geometric precision, bold color, and the kind of symmetry that communicates confidence. The Mum Teal from the Classic Collection is a chrysanthemum in teal — a flower with radial symmetry and a color that has always known exactly where it belongs in a room.

Does it come in a gift box?

Yes. The Ceramic Flower Mum Teal ships in a Chive gift box — no additional wrapping required. Order it, address it, done. If you need it to arrive as a gift to someone else's address, the standard shipping process handles that. One fewer thing to arrange.
