Red Crackle Headrest

Offered by: PAGODA RED

Description
This low, four-leg stool is actually a headrest used atop a daybed or mat to support the head while sleeping, reclining, or smoking opium. As an opium accessory, rigid headrests such as this allowed an inebriated smoker to to more comfortably lie on their side and maintain a view of their opium lamp.
