Tulip pagoda Tall
Model:MI CCA 01T Tul
Very decorative 6 piece pagoda inspired by the the 17th century tulipieres which were used to grow tulip bulbs indoors. Numerous flower bulbs from Asia such as the tulip, crocus and hyacinth became luxury items in Europe and these bulbs remained an exotic novelty until the end of the 17th century. At one stage, certain bulbs were worth more than their weight in gold. Tulipieres were classically delftware originating in the Netherlands, and were used as a status symbol to indicate the owner’s wealth.
In today’s interiors they still provide an intriguing and attractive focal interest.
A smaller 4 piece version is available, as well as a 4 piece blanc de chine version. please see the following links:
