This unique baluster or temple jar was hand formed and painted with a lotus motif in the Zhejiang region of China during the early 20th century. These jars were often used to store and transport spices, tea, medicinal herbs and even sweetmeats during Chinese New Year. It was customary for the recipient to return the jar filled with different delicacies.

What They're Saying

Andrea Goldman | Andrea Goldman Design

“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.”
