This is a wonderfully dramatic standard single bed. It is antique, made in walnut in Italy around 1880.
The Italians were renowned for their mastery of carving and the rococo design to the crest is incredibly well carved with sea shell and swirling foliate designs.
The bed has recessed panels to footboard and headboard and the footboard stands on original bun feet. The bed has its original slot in side rails and I have supplied wooden slats to form a sturdy base for your mattress.
The single bed's width is actually 35 inches so a 36 inch wide single bed will over hang the edge a fraction. (This is normal in period beds.) All you will require is a standard single mattress 36 inches wide and up to 76 inches long.
The headboard is 74 inches high and the footboard is 40 inches high.
The bed is in good antique condition. Marks from age and usage as you would expect. The walnut is rich and polished.
The bed is sturdy when built and splits for moving.
