About the Item

19th Century Italian Neoclassical Louis XVI Painted 3/4 Bed was custom-made, as is the case with most fine beds from the period, designed to take a particular size of mattress before the standardization of sizes in the early 20th century. The straightforward framework will be fitted with brackets according to its new owner's requirements, performed by our expert in-house staff, as the mattress set can be mounted inside or on top of the side rails. The footboard with egg finials and rails are of a very tailored design, completely covered in the base color of a pastel bluish green. The headboard, however, commands attention, styled with an oval placard framed by the bedframe posts which feature highlighted fluting and beautifully carved lotus style urn finials. The oval is framed by a subtle pastel peach colored molding with gold highlighting, surrounding a foliate border which then frames the lovely landscape vista. Hand-painted decorative brackets hold the oval form, which is further embellished with applied laurel sprays and a rosette on top, all highlighted in patinaed gold. An excellent choice for a refined, Old World look! Excellent mattress options available at The Mattress Factory in Fort Worth. We can help! Circa 1890s Headboard measures 65.5H x 52.5W; Footboard measures 28.5H x 52.5W; Rails are 78" long.

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...

Antique Italian Neoclassical Painted Queen Bed
Located in Dallas, TX
Antique Italian Neoclassical Painted QUEEN Bed is a splendid expression of the classical style that dates back three thousand years! Even the French embraced the style during the reign of Louis XVI, but in reality it never really went out of fashion. This example, with rectilinear headboard, rails and centermost portion of the footboard, is softened into the room with the introduction of radiused curves a the lower portion of the footboard's sides to connect to the rails. Beautifully carved molded detail appears in abundance across the entire framework, including spiral ribbon, egg and tongue & dart, with a particularly resplendent vine relief across the top of the headboard that is amazingly intricate. As it is supposed to be, the footboard steals the show, designed to take front stage in the room, and featuring an exquisite torchere set...
