Powder Blue Amandine Ranunculus
Bathroom wall decor has a specific problem — most of what works in a living room does not survive the humidity, the steam, or the particular scrutiny that comes from having nothing else to do while brushing your teeth. The Powder Blue Amandine Ranunculus is a handmade ceramic wall flower from the English Garden Collection, kiln-fired at temperatures that humidity has no effect on, and glazed in a powder blue that looks considered in any light condition including the aggressive overhead light of a bathroom where someone has just woken up.
Blue wall art that has a specific relationship with water
Powder blue is the color of the sky in a painting from a period when painters were confident about skies. It is not the blue of something uncertain — it is the blue of a decision made and held. The ranunculus form has been part of the English Garden Collection since its early years. The Amandine is a cultivar with tightly packed petals and a slightly more spherical profile than other ranunculus forms in the range. The English Garden Collection launched at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, where Chive has been awarded the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — twice. The 5-star category does not appear on the internet's public record of the show. We have mentioned this before. We will mention it again.
The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens gift shop carries the English Garden Collection. The Denver Botanic Gardens stocks it. The Museum of Fine Arts Boston carries it. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show awarded Chive the 5-star booth award — the highest rating given — for 13 consecutive years. People who curate gift shops at botanical institutions have strong opinions about what belongs in them. Chive has been designing and making ceramic flowers in Toronto since 1999.
A gift for someone who has everything and has mentioned this several times
The Powder Blue Amandine Ranunculus is the correct gift for the person who has everything because it is the kind of thing that person has not already acquired — it is specific enough to have a point of view and handmade enough to have a history. It ships in a Chive gift box. It hangs with one screw. It requires nothing and adds something. The person who says they have everything usually means they have everything conventional. This is not conventional.
