Pagodas

Pagodas can make a great statement
for a living space.
Many designers love using pagoda
on the mantels piece, foyer or sofa consoles,
side table, dinning room table or sideboards.

Pagodas can be used in outdoor to create a vista.
Andrew Raquet used this 4-foot-high pagoda in this lovely dinning room, making a bold statement. The silver tea-leaf wallpaper is from Gracie. Image from House Beautiful.

Pagodas can be seen in many Chinese and Japanese gardens.Standing almost 8ft tall and hand carved from solid granite this lantern can provide an impressive centrepiece in a garden or conservatory or foyer. www.oak-barrel.co.uk

Seeing these pagados, it reminds me of pagodas in China, Malaysia and London.

  1. Christopher, I don't know if you will get this message. Trying to find a large white Pagoda to sit on the floor of my Dining Room like the one you posted in the beautiful white dining room used by Andrew Raquet in House Beautiful. Any suggestions where I might find something similar? Thank you.
