Tiffany & Co. Pagoda Serving Bowl — Discontinued Chinoiserie Pattern, Made in France
Circa 2001 — Early 2000s Tiffany & Co. Production
Chinoiserie
The Pagoda pattern belongs to a chapter of Tiffany & Co.'s tableware history that quietly closed and won't reopen. Produced under Tiffany's direction at a French porcelain house — almost certainly in the Limoges region — the Pagoda line married centuries-old chinoiserie tradition with the restrained elegance that defines Tiffany's aesthetic.
Blue-and-white porcelain has traveled a remarkable path: from Song Dynasty China to the kilns of Delft, from Meissen to Staffordshire, and eventually to the ateliers of Limoges. By the time Tiffany introduced the Pagoda pattern around the turn of the millennium, the tradition was already eight hundred years deep. What Tiffany brought was editorial discipline — a pine branch motif rendered with just enough detail to feel alive, set against luminous ivory porcelain and finished with a single cobalt line at the scalloped rim. Nothing unnecessary. Nothing missing.
This serving bowl carries a backstamp dating it to 2001. The pattern was discontinued not long after, making surviving pieces increasingly uncommon on the secondary market. Serving bowls, with their generous scale and footed silhouette, are among the most sought-after forms in the Pagoda line — equally at home anchoring a tablescape or displayed as a standalone object. From a private collection to yours — a piece of Tiffany's French porcelain heritage that grows rarer with each passing year.

A Pattern Worth Finding
Tiffany's Pagoda line drew from the long tradition of blue-and-white chinoiserie — but did it with a restraint that's unmistakably Tiffany. This serving bowl is from that discontinued collection, and it's in the kind of condition that makes you wonder if someone bought it and simply loved it too much to risk using it. The design is deceptively simple: cobalt blue pine branches with delicate starburst needle clusters, painted on a warm ivory ground. A fine cobalt line traces the scalloped rim. The glaze is bright and fully intact — no fading, no worn spots, no compromises. It catches light the way good porcelain should.About the Pagoda Pattern
Tiffany produced the Pagoda line in partnership with a French porcelain house — the backstamp reads "Made in France," which almost certainly means Limoges-region production under Tiffany's direction. This piece dates to 2001, and the pattern has since been discontinued. That's worth knowing, because once Tiffany stops making something, the secondary market pays attention. Pagoda pieces don't come up every day, and the serving bowls are particularly sought after.Blue and White, Done Right
There's a reason blue-and-white chinoiserie has survived centuries of changing taste — it works with almost everything, and it never looks like it's trying too hard. If you're already collecting blue and white, this piece earns its place at the table. If you're just starting, it's not a bad place to begin.Details
