Used to tote pails of water and grain, these 19th-century yokes, or burden bars, transcend their functional origins to become a striking sculpture. Each fruitwood burden bar is gently tapered at the ends and softened by a rich patina. This set of five burden bars casts beautiful shadows when leaned against a wall, adding irregular form and textural contrast to the modern home.

Longest Bar: 2.5"W x 1.25"D x 91.75"H
Shortest Bar: 3"W x 1.5"D x 78.5"H

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.”
