Peridot Sorbet Peony
Japandi wall art in green needs the specific green of the Japanese aesthetic tradition — not the bright botanical green of an English garden, not the grey-green of Scandinavian sage, but the warm yellow-green of young bamboo and fresh Japanese ceramics, the peridot that appears in Edo-period lacquerware and in the specific green that Japanese glaze-makers have been producing for centuries. The Peridot Sorbet Peony is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the Japan Collection, kiln-fired in Toronto in a peridot glaze, shaped in the Sorbet peony cultivar — a medium-sized, semi-double peony form with an open center that reads as less formal than the fully double Bowl or Big Ben forms.
The warm Japanese green on the most accessible peony form
Chive designed the Japan Collection in 2020 with the Japanese aesthetic palette as the guide, and peridot is the collection's warm green — the yellow-green that reads as connected to bamboo and jade and the specific green of Japanese ceramics rather than the botanical dark greens of other collections. The Sorbet peony form holds the peridot glaze in its semi-double open form with a lightness that the fully double Bowl or Big Ben peonies would not provide — peridot on the Sorbet reads as present and warm without the weight of a larger, denser form. The New York Botanical Garden carries the Japan Collection.
The New York Botanical Garden carries the Japan Collection. The Chicago Botanic Garden stocks it. The Denver Botanic Gardens carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. Botanical gardens from New York to Denver 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 needs its specific warm green botanical
The Peridot Sorbet Peony ships in a Chive gift box. It hangs with one screw in 90 seconds. The New York Botanical Garden carries it. The Japandi room with neutral walls receives the Japan Collection's warmest green from the same collection a major botanical institution chose.
