So as not to muss their intricate hairstyles, Ethiopian women would traditionally rest their heads on these petite wooden stands. The combination of conic base and concave rest gives this functional item an elevated sense of artistry. Expressively shaped with a beautifully worn finish, the headrest makes for an intriguing addition to a bookcase, desk, or side table.

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.”
