  • Victorian Mahogany Antique Four Poster Bed, W4P9
    Located in Wrexham, GB
    A magnificent Victorian mahogany four poster bed with substantial bow shaped footboard and shaped canopy. The turned tapered posts at the foot of the bed have large decorative features, which sit on tall square section plinths above bun feet. The bowed footboard with superb burr mahogany veneer has a central carving of vines and grapes and accentuated shoulders. Whilst the magnificent canopy with wave design cornice has a highly unusual bowed front section, which mirrors the bow shape of the footboard, and is also matched by a bow shaped canopy rail. The three canopy rails have the original rings to support drapes. This four poster bed is the height of Victorian drama and is one of the finest examples we have ever handled. It does require a little work to bring it back to its former glory but otherwise is in excellent condition. There are minor carving repairs and the whole bed requires a refinish to bring back the depth of colour. However Seventh Heaven will complete all the work to the highest standard - this bed will be truely eye-catching when complete. There are options for the depth of the bed. It is 60 inches wide so will accommodate a UK King or US Queen size mattress, but the length is short and currently will only take a 69 inch long mattress. However, we have the ability to extend the length of the bed (bed runners...
