This one-of-a-kind limestone charm in the shape of a resting ox originally used its heft in a 19th c. Chinese baby's nursery. A simple yet ingenious concept, this stone guardian anchored a baby’s swaddling cloth to the bed so the child wouldn’t roll out. At rest just like its charge, the animal represents the Chinese zodiac sign under which the baby was born, the Year of the Ox, known for inspiring hard work, positivity and trust.

Elizabeth Krueger | Elizabeth Krueger Design

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
