About the Item

Pair of antique French Louis XVI mahogany marquetry twin beds with bronze ormolu are masterpieces of the furniture maker's art!

The footboard also features a step-front design for added visual interest. Bronze ormolu mounts of rosettes, bell flowers and Greek coin overlay enhance the look, with tapered legs for support collared and tipped in bronze for a truly regal look. Circa early 1900s Headboard measures 56H x 39.5W; footboard is 34H x 39.5W Measures 75" from inside the headboard to inside the footboard; New slats are mounted flush with the top of the rails to accommodate various mattress set widths.

19th Century French Louis XVI Painted Bed with Caning
Located in Dallas, TX
19th Century French Louis XVI Painted Bed with Caning is a remarkable work of the furniture maker's art! Sculpted from walnut, it features artistry exhibited from the crown of the headboard to the arbalette base of the footboard which happens to match the side rails. The gracefully arched headboard consists of complex hand-carved molding surrounding a Greek coin border all across the crown, centered with an exquisitely rendered wreath of roses tied together with flowing ribbon. Egg finials on foliate bases adorn the corners, underneath which are rosettes and bell flowers, with more rosettes on the corner of the caned panel. As should be the case, the footboard has received equal attentions of the sculptor, with a boldly molded framework in an ovoid shape centered with a laurel wreath tied with ribbon mounted atop the double caned panel. Triangular rosettes provide an accent, with square rosettes serving as end caps on each corner under which are more bell flowers. The original painted finish has achieved a lovely patina and a charming state of distress that only adds to the allure and desirability of this magnificent work of the cabinetmaker's art! Accommodates full mattress with extra width to spare, or a custom mattress that can use queen sheets...
