Golden Brick Side Table

Offered by: PAGODA RED

Description
Depth: 22.0" // Part of the long history of Chinese ceramics, the hand-crafted earthenware tile that tops this low table was originally used to pave the floors of the Forbidden City palace complex in Beijing. Reserved for use by only the imperial family, these dark grey tiles are known as “golden bricks,” or jīnzhuān, due to the celebratory colors of gold and yellow being associated with all things imperial.
