Chelsea Flower Show 2025
Another year pretending we understand sophisticated British gardening.
Pre-Order Nantucket
This one comes with genuine salt-air memories, named after that tiny Massachusetts island where the fog rolls in thick enough to make neighbors disappear and reappear like magicians' assistants throughout the day.

Sometimes it pays to be drunk...
Todd was having dim sum in Chinatown in Toronto at 4:00am, let’s be honest, he’d had a lot to drink. He was looking at all the dishes and realized they would be cool as pots. Sober, he designed 8 of them, made out of porcelain. To date, we’ve done 32 versions, with new ones coming next year. Like we said, sometimes it pays to be drunk.
Pooley Vase Collection
I first encountered Pooley during what I'll call my "vase-curious" phase. Like finding a perfectly ripe peach at a farmers market, this masterwork of flowing glass has graced homes for two decades now, outlasting three of my relationships and countless attempted soufflés. A perennial bestseller, she sits there judging my life choices with the quiet dignity of European royalty.

Loft Vintage Bud Vases
So here’s a story: when Todd was a kid, he used to be dropped off at the family farm for the summer, and like all farms, there wasn't much to do. He spent a lot of time finding arrowheads and old medicine bottles, which is the inspiration for Loft. 20 years later, he went back to the farm and had a mold of medicine bottles made. Turns out his summers were cool after all.
Perfect Wall Art
Originally destined for tabletops, fate intervened when two domestic goddesses - Oprah and Martha themselves - declared these babies belonged on walls. Who could argue with that kind of decorating royalty?

Easy Installation
One discovers the most elegant of solutions: a humble keyhole adorns the reverse, yearning for nothing more than a single screw. Into drywall it slides, defying both gravity and common sense.
Voilà - sweet victory.
Pretty Flowers in Pretty Boxes
Each delicate ceramic blossom nestles in a box worthy of its artistry, wrapped with the kind of care that makes gift-givers beam with pride. Making others look thoughtful comes naturally around here.
Impossible to Mess Up
One might imagine that combining ceramic flowers could lead to disaster, but no - these darlings refuse to clash. The collection stands ready, each bloom smugly aware of its fool-proof charm, practically taunting challengers to attempt a mismatch.
Chive Story
How it started
So, in 2004, we started Chive to get back to what mattered to us; great design, well-made products and having fun.
Chive started by designing flower vases for wholesale.
Then we evolved, creating pots that are now in 6,000 retailers and every museum across North America.
Apparently there was a world-wide pandemic.Chive Story
In 2020, at the height of the pandemic in a moment that can only be politely described as utter madness, we decided to open a plant store in Toronto.
And, despite several lockdowns our direct-to-real people approach really took off, much to our relief, but not to our surprise.
What's next?
Today, we’re based in Toronto, San Diego, Birmingham. Yet, despite our success, we have stayed small, and passionately anti-corporate, ensuring our love of design and quality never gets lost.
Now, our founder is anything but bored. But to this day, you won’t find anything in Terracotta at Chive.
The set I purchased are really lovely and look so nice on my bedroom wall.
I purchased two sets as a Christmas gift for my daughter. They were packed in beautiful gift boxes with foam inserts to keep them safe. They are truly beautiful. I know my daughter will love them.
I loved the Pooley Bud Vase. I got the "Moss" color from a friend for my birthday and I came home and bought 3 for friends I am working with on a native prairie restoration. The design is wonderful to showcase individual or group flowers and stems. So pretty.×
