Grey Green Monch Aster
Japandi wall art in the Japan Collection concludes its palette with grey green — the color that bridges the cool grey tradition and the botanical green tradition, the specific tone that reads as both simultaneously, the grey-green of Japanese moss on stone, of the patina on aged Japanese bronze, of the specific color that appears when grey and green have been in conversation for a long time. The Grey Green Monch Aster is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the Japan Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a grey green glaze, shaped in the Monch aster form — the classic large-flowered daisy-like aster cultivar that is one of the most planted asters in traditional garden design.
The bridge color of a collection built on the full Japanese aesthetic palette
Chive designed the Japan Collection in 2020 with a palette that covers the full range of the Japanese aesthetic — the deep blues, the botanical greens, the natural neutrals, the specific earthy tones, and the bridge colors that connect them. Grey green is the Japan Collection's bridge color: it connects the cool grey of the Japanese sumi ink tradition to the botanical green of the Japanese garden tradition, the color that reads as occupying both aesthetic territories simultaneously. The Monch aster form holds the grey green glaze in its large open structure with the kind of presence that makes the bridge color visible from across the room. Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens carries the Japan Collection.
Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens carries the Japan Collection. The San Antonio Botanical Garden stocks it. The McKee 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 across the US have independently decided this collection belongs in their shops. Chive has been designing and making ceramic flowers in Toronto since 1999.
A gift for the Japandi room that uses both grey and green and needs the botanical bridge
The Grey Green Monch Aster ships in a Chive gift box. It hangs with one screw in 90 seconds. Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens carries it. The room that uses both grey and green receives the Japan Collection's bridge color — the single piece that makes both palette decisions read as part of one deliberate system.
