"Rooster and Cherry Blossoms" is a unique miniature kite by Chicago-based artist Michael Thompson. To create a kite, Thompson builds a split bamboo frame with bamboo collected from Southern China. Over the bamboo, he stretches muslin, then collages with ephemera collected from his Asian travels. "Rooster and Cherry Blossoms" features a vintage Japanese print of a rooster with a whimsical tail in front of winter branches.

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.”
