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:


A 9th anniversary gift sits in an odd stretch of the traditional list — past the early-marriage staples of paper and cotton, but before the milestone decades that get all the attention. The Blue White Lexi Cornflower fills that gap with something that doesn't correspond to a specific material at all, just a small, well-made object built to outlast the occasion it marks. Its blue-and-white glaze pulls from the same coastal palette as delftware and classic nautical decor, giving it a place on a hallway wall or a bookshelf without demanding a design commitment from the room around it. Rendered in ceramic and shaped by hand, it holds its form without water or sunlight, unlike a fresh cornflower that browns and drops within days. It ships ready to hang, with no vase, no soil, and no future maintenance to think about. San Antonio Botanical Garden has cultivated cornflower varieties among its native plant collections, and the Lexi Cornflower carries that same detail into a piece built to last well beyond a single bloom cycle.

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.

Ivory Chrysanthemum ceramic wall flower styled on wall — Coastal Collection — Chive Studio Toronto

The Blue White Lexi Cornflower, Explained

A cornflower doesn't carry the same nautical associations a peony or a shell might, which is exactly why its blue-and-white treatment here reads less like a themed coastal object and more like a small, well-made piece that simply happens to fit a coastal palette naturally. This one keeps the flower's simple, five-petaled shape fully intact while layering on a glaze pattern borrowed from the same delftware tradition running through the rest of the Nantucket line. It's a smaller, quieter piece than some of its neighbors in the collection, which makes it especially useful in spots that don't need a bold anchor statement at all — a bathroom wall, a narrow hallway, a bookshelf that already has enough going on. There's no vase to fill up, no water to change, no eventual wilting to plan around once the bloom is a few days old. Chive built it to hang the same way every ceramic flower does, with a single screw and no additional hardware required for mounting. It doesn't announce itself the way a larger piece might elsewhere in a room. It just sits there quietly, doing its job well, for as long as it's given a wall to hang on.

One screw. One keyhole on the back. Ninety seconds and it's on the wall. The video shows exactly how it happens — no special hardware, no second holes, no contractor on speed dial. Whether you're hanging one piece or planning a full gallery wall, the hanging guide walks you through both.

Designed to Share the Same Room

About This Collection

The Coastal collection picked up its ease from porches that never worried about salt air, since nothing here was ever precious — driftwood pale, sea glass blue, a shell-toned bloom left weathered. Every piece trades gloss for something sun-faded. The Lexi Cornflower's smaller scale makes it the quiet counterpart to the Hermione Peony's larger presence, both sharing the same blue-and-white glaze tradition. Explore the Ivory Amandine Ranunculus for another compact piece well suited to tighter wall spots.

Styling This Piece

Every Chive ceramic flower works two ways: mounted vertically as a growing gallery wall, or laid flat as a no-water tablescape. A cluster of three or four Lexi Cornflowers at staggered heights fills a narrow hallway wall without ever feeling crowded or overly busy. On a bathroom or entryway wall, one piece alone is often enough to add a coastal note without competing with mirrors or fixtures. Its small scale is the whole advantage here.

Complete the Collection

Because the Lexi Cornflower is sized for tighter spots, it pairs naturally with a planter that doesn't demand much extra room of its own either. The Virago Porcelain Pot 5 Inch fits the same narrow hallway or bathroom shelf the Cornflower was originally sized for, without either piece crowding out the other in a small space. Scale matters more than color here, and both pieces were built with that same restraint in mind.

The Chive Story

Chive Ceramics Studio makes a point of including smaller, quieter pieces in every collection alongside the larger statement flowers, since not every wall or shelf needs something dominant. The Lexi Cornflower is one of those smaller pieces, sized to work in spots a bigger bloom would overwhelm entirely. Getting the blue-and-white glaze consistent on a smaller surface is trickier than it sounds, since there's less room for the pattern to breathe before it starts to look cramped. The studio treats that constraint as a design problem worth solving carefully, not a corner to cut. Every piece is still shaped and finished by hand, regardless of its size relative to the rest of the catalog.

Frequently asked questions

How does a Blue White Lexi Cornflower hang on the wall?

The Blue White Lexi Cornflower hangs with a single screw, the same hardware used across every Chive ceramic flower. No bracket or adhesive strip is needed to keep it level once it's mounted. The whole process takes about ninety seconds, start to finish, no extra tools beyond a screwdriver. It stays fixed in place after that.

What is a thoughtful gift for a sister-in-law?

A thoughtful sister-in-law gift usually needs to feel personal without overstepping into territory that feels too intimate or too generic. The Lexi Cornflower's small size and blue-and-white pattern read as considered rather than an obvious last-minute pick. It hangs on a wall instead of taking up shelf space she may not have to spare. Most gifts in this category are forgotten within a year; this one just stays hung.

Is a ceramic cornflower a good gift idea?

A ceramic cornflower works well as a gift idea for someone who already has enough candles, picture frames, and other clutter-prone presents sitting around. The Lexi Cornflower ships ready to hang, with no vase or water schedule required afterward. Its smaller size also makes it easy to fit into an already furnished room. It solves a display problem instead of creating one.

Does a blue and white cornflower work as nautical decor?

A blue and white cornflower fits naturally into nautical or coastal decor, since the glaze pattern borrows from the same delftware tradition running through classic coastal china pieces. The Lexi Cornflower's smaller scale makes it useful for tighter spots a larger nautical piece wouldn't suit well. It hangs the same way any Chive flower does, with no upkeep required afterward. A coastal room often needs a smaller accent more than another large piece.

What ships inside the box with a Lexi Cornflower order?

The Lexi Cornflower ships in Chive's own gift box, arriving fully finished and ready to mount straight from the packaging. The mounting screw travels with the piece, so there's no separate hardware to track down first. Nothing requires assembly before it goes on the wall. The unboxing is the entire process.

What is a good gift for a coworker leaving?

A good going-away gift for a coworker tends to work best when it's warm without being overly personal, and a small ceramic wall piece threads that needle well. The Lexi Cornflower doesn't require a desk plant's watering schedule, so it travels easily to a new office or home workspace. It also skips anything overtly sentimental that might feel misplaced from a colleague. This one won't get left behind in a drawer.

How long does a ceramic cornflower last versus a fresh one?

A fresh cornflower browns and drops its petals within a few days of being cut, often before it's even finished serving its decorative purpose. The ceramic Lexi Cornflower holds its exact shape indefinitely, with no vase, no water changes, and no wilting to plan around. It's built to outlast the moment it was picked up for by years. The fresh version never gets close to that timeline.

Is a ceramic cornflower a good sister-in-law gift?

A ceramic cornflower works well as a sister-in-law gift since its smaller size and quiet blue-and-white pattern avoid feeling like an oversized or overly sentimental gesture. The Lexi Cornflower ships ready to hang, with nothing further needed once it arrives. It suits nearly any room's decor without requiring her to redesign around it. Most sister-in-law gifts try too hard; this one doesn't.
