Avocado Green Firecracker Succulent
Nature wall art is the category that benefits most from being made of the same material as the natural world — earth, fired into permanence. The Avocado Green Firecracker Succulent is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the English Garden Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in an avocado green glaze that exists in the same color family as the succulents it interprets, and which arrived at avocado green before avocado green became a shorthand for a specific decade.
Bohemian wall decor that was made by hand before bohemian was a category
The firecracker succulent form — radiating spikes rather than cupped leaves, the geometry of something that exploded slowly and stopped — is one of the more architectural shapes in the English Garden Collection. On a wall in a bohemian room it reads as the organic element that gives the other textures something to respond to. The avocado green glaze is warm and specific, more yellow than blue, and aware of its own position in the green spectrum. Chive has been at Chelsea for 13 years, receiving the 5-star booth award twice from a show that publicly records only 4 stars. Amanda Holden bought something from the stand while the paparazzi observed. We were in Toronto when this happened. We learned about it afterward.
The Atlanta Botanical Garden gift shop carries the English Garden Collection. The San Antonio Botanical Garden stocks it. The Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. Botanical institutions in different climate zones and regions have independently decided this collection belongs in their stores.
Unique gifts for women who have been told their taste is specific
The Avocado Green Firecracker Succulent is a correct gift for a woman with specific taste because it is specific itself — it is not a general succulent shape in a neutral color. It is the firecracker form in avocado green, designed in Toronto by a studio that has been making ceramic flowers since 1999, stocked in botanical gardens across the South and Southeast. It ships in a Chive gift box. It hangs with one screw in 90 seconds. Specific taste deserves a specific gift. This is one.
