Italian Cast Iron & Tole Hand-Painted Bed with Mother of Pear Accents 19th C.

About the Item

A one of a kind Italian cast iron and tole hand- painted bed from the 19th century, with applied mother-of-pearl accents, Tole painting is a meticulously decorative painting on objects and furniture, with a long history all over Europe specially among Netherlands and Scandinavian countries, including Norwegians, Danes and Swedes. In America the practice began with European inmigrants in New England around the 18th century. The most beloved family objects tend to be high quality utensils or furniture, painted freehand with favorite patterns, colors or flowers, or favorite illustrations or family stories. The perceived value of a tolled utensil increases with its quality as a utensil, the quality of the art, and the personalization, the story and the work.
