FRANCE COLLECTION
Robin's Egg Blue Stargazer Lily
The stargazer lily that went robin's egg blue and has been facing the viewer with confidence ever since.
Description
French country decor in robin's egg blue returns to the specific blue of Loire Valley pottery and old French faience tile — the committed cool blue that reads as French rather than generically blue. The Robin's Egg Blue Stargazer Lily is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the France Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a robin's egg blue glaze, shaped in the stargazer lily form — the upward-facing cultivar that was bred specifically to face toward the viewer, which in wall-mounted ceramic means facing directly out from the wall.
The directional blue of a collection French Vogue chose to run
Chive interprets the French Vogue feature as an endorsement. The stargazer lily's upward-facing quality gives the robin's egg blue a directionality that other France Collection blue pieces do not have — the color reaches toward the viewer rather than presenting itself flatly. On a wall, the Robin's Egg Blue Stargazer Lily reads as the France Collection piece most aware of the person looking at it. French Vogue ran it. The Atlanta Botanical Garden carries it. Both responses acknowledge that a ceramic object that faces you directly is a specific kind of object.
The Atlanta Botanical Garden carries the France Collection. The McKee Botanical Garden stocks it. The San Antonio Botanical Garden carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. Botanical gardens in the Southeast and South have independently decided this collection belongs in their shops. Chive has been designing and making ceramic flowers in Toronto since 1999.
A gift for someone who wants the France Collection's most directional piece

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.
