A true comfort food, the rice porridge known as congee has been a part of everyday life in China for centuries. Often eaten for breakfast, the dish is frequently accompanied by other flavor agents making this capacious pot a perfect serving vessel. An exquisite example of traditional blue-and-white porcelain, this early 20th-century lidded pot is hand-painted with graceful blades of grass and lush peony blossoms, symbols of love and affection and emblems of spring time.

“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.”
