Peridot Green Maiden Lotus
Vintage botanical wall art has the specific appeal of objects that look like they were made with intention by someone who knew what they were doing — detailed, specific, connected to a genuine understanding of the plant they represent. The Peridot Green Maiden Lotus is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the English Garden Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a peridot green glaze, and shaped in the layered cup form of the lotus that botanical illustrators have been drawing in careful detail for several centuries.
Artisan home decor from a studio that learned something from a paparazzi
Chive has been making ceramic flowers in Toronto since 1999. The team does not watch British television and does not typically recognize the people who buy things at the Chelsea Flower Show. The paparazzi positioned outside the show are more reliable in this respect — they photograph notable visitors leaving. Amanda Holden has been documented in this category. The English Garden Collection has been part of the Chelsea stand for 13 of those years, receiving the 5-star booth award twice in a category that publicly records only 4 stars. The peridot green lotus was part of the display. What it was doing in the photographs is information we do not have.
Longwood Gardens gift shop carries the English Garden Collection. The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens stocks it. The Santa Barbara Botanic Garden carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. Botanical institutions associated with landscape design and horticultural excellence have been buying this collection for years.
Something for the person who has everything and knows it
The Peridot Green Maiden Lotus is the gift for the person who has everything because it is the kind of thing that person does not have — specific enough to have been designed, handmade enough to have been made, and stocked in Longwood Gardens, which is one of the most celebrated botanical institutions in North America. It ships in a Chive gift box. It hangs with one screw. The person who has everything does not yet have this.
