In an exclusive collaboration with PAGODA RED, each hand-studded piece by artist the bms. was transformed from a provincial 19th-century artifact into a one-of-a-kind work of art. Embellishing with silver and gold tacks, the bms. adds a contemporary twist to our storied objects, animating each surface with bold and provocative designs.

Carved from the cylindrical form of a single bamboo segment, this 19th-century headrest was originally used to preserve intricate hairstyles during sleep. The bms. enhanced the headrest's unusual form, re-imagining the piece on its side as a decorative candle sconce. The silvery interior casts a cool glow over its surroundings, lit by the twinkling light of a tealight or votive candle set below.
