Long ago, this little box was used by a Qing-dynasty woman to store her favorite pieces of jewelry, each drawer filled with jades, pearls, coral necklaces, and hair pins. The front is topped by a keyhole escutcheon in the form of a lotus, a symbol of purity and beauty, while below it, two starburst pulls ornament each drawer. Aged with a rich patina, the brass hardware contrasts with the chest's birch wood construction, left unfinished to showcase its golden color and beautiful grain pattern. The chest’s lid lifts to reveal a framed mirror and two shallow jewelry compartments. We've re-imagined this charming jewelry box as a petite side table, elevated by a custom steel table base.

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.”
