This stunning full-size bed, a relic of the Napoleon III era, exemplifies the luxurious and ornate design principles of 19th-century French craftsmanship. Constructed from rich walnut, the bed’s robust structure features detailed carvings and sculpted elements that celebrate the period’s exquisite attention to decorative arts. The centerpiece, a regal headboard, is crowned with an elaborate floral crest, accentuated by detailed leaf motifs along the sides, highlighting the bed’s stately appearance.
The piece’s historic charm is slightly touched by time, with minor losses in the molding at the base of the headboard adding to its authentic antique character. Notably, the space between the rails is a bit narrower than what is standard for contemporary full-size mattresses. To accommodate modern comfort needs while preserving the integrity of this historic piece, custom-made slats are provided to support a box spring, ensuring the bed meets both aesthetic and functional standards for today’s homes.
Perfect for those who appreciate the beauty and history of antique furniture, this bed offers not just a place to rest but also serves as a magnificent focal point in any bedroom, blending historical richness with practical adjustments for modern usage. It invites a touch of French aristocratic elegance into your home, making it a cherished piece for years to come. 69h x 60w x 86d inside the rails 52 1/2w x 77d
