This drum form stool was hand-carved from solid limestone by an artisan in China’s Shanxi province in the late 19th-century. Sculpted to a ridged melon shape, a traditional Chinese symbol of fertility, the drum is incised with trailing vines and flower blossoms. We love it juxtaposed as a side table with a mid-century seat, or as a stool in a grove of trees as the ultimate place to ponder.

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.”
