Hung on the wall of a Qing-dynasty home in northern China, this remarkably crafted hat rack provided the kind of elevated display that status-enhancing hats demanded. Flanking the central mirror and carved rosewood panel, floral still lifes are brilliantly composed of silk and painted silk appliqué down to each leaf and petal. Graceful hat stands fold out from the frame, joined by four swivel hooks at the bottom for additional hanging. Evocative of a past era, the hat rack elevates a foyer or entryway, providing an elegant rest stop for scarves, bags, or jackets.

What They're Saying

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.”
