Olive Green Echeveria
Succulent wall art occupies a specific niche in home decor — the idea of something alive and botanical without the commitment to keeping it alive. The Olive Green Echeveria is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the English Garden Collection, which takes that idea as far as it goes: kiln-fired in Toronto, in an olive green glaze, shaped to read immediately as an echeveria and requiring absolutely nothing from the person who hangs it.
Boho bedroom decor that was designed, not discovered
The echeveria form — rosette, layered, dense at the center — translates particularly well to ceramic because the regularity of the leaves benefits from the same precision that ceramic firing produces. The olive green glaze sits in the range of colors that work with rattan, linen, raw wood, and white paint, which covers most of what the boho aesthetic requires. The English Garden Collection has been shown at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show for 13 consecutive years. Chive has received the 5-star booth award there twice. The booth award maxes out publicly at 4 stars. The fifth star is real and undocumented.
The Getty Museum gift shop carries the English Garden Collection. The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens stocks it. The Monterey Bay Aquarium gift shop carries it as well, which is a combination that makes more sense the longer you think about it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. These institutions curate for people who buy things they intend to keep. Chive has been designing and making ceramic flowers in Toronto since 1999.
White elephant gift ideas that people actually fight over
The Olive Green Echeveria is the correct answer to white elephant gift exchanges where the budget is real and the stakes are social. It arrives in a Chive gift box. It is ceramic, handmade in Toronto, and sold in the Getty Museum gift shop. It will be stolen at least once, which is the metric by which white elephant gifts are actually measured. It hangs on a wall with one screw, takes 90 seconds, and never asks to be watered.
