This 18th-century Peking glass cup, carved with a delicate floral motif, was cast in a popular color known as “chicken fat yellow." Peking glass was an art form that became popular after 1696, when the Kangxi Emperor had a glass workshop built on the grounds of the imperial palace. To create this exquisite glassware, glass makers would expertly sculpt away at layered dipped glass—in this case, all of one color.

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
