Bamboo Bed by Tito Agnoli for Bonacina, Italy, 50's
By Tito Agnoli, Bonacina
Located in Padova, IT
Bamboo bed by Tito Agnoli for Bonacina - Italy - 50's
The simple but at the same time refined formal configuration of this bed enhances the warm naturalness of the bamboo and the modular core made up of load-bearing boards (those with larger diameters) and infill ones (with smaller diameters). Four sturdy feet raised the seat 45 cm from the ground.
The architect and lighting and furniture designer Tito Agnoli was born in 1931 in Lima, Peru. Having a family in Italy, he moved there to study in the years after the Second World War. After studying painting under the guidance of the modernist artist Mario Sironi, Agnoli enrolled at the Polytechnic of Miano in 1949 to study architecture. After graduating and specializing in industrial design, Agnoli completes an apprenticeship for the famous designers Gio Ponti and Carlo De Carli. In the 50s, 60s and 70s Agnoli designed with aptitude in the fields of furniture and lighting, creating seating designs for Italian luxury brands such as Arflex, Bonacina, Matteo Grassi, Poltrona Frau, Ycami, and design of lamps and chandeliers for Oluce. His notable designs include the Model 9000 sofa (1969) for Arflex; the sculptural wicker chair...

Antique, New and Vintage Beds and Bed Frames
We find relaxation and solace in our bedrooms, which are often the most cherished rooms of a home. Your antique, new or vintage bed and bed frame are integral to this oasis of personal comfort.
Beds and bed frames have long been an important part of the sanctuary that is the bedroom. For the upper class in countries such as England, the massive, costly beds of the 16th and 17th centuries were decorative and of the poster variety. Some were characterized by large painted wooden headboards, often made of oak, that featured ornate carvings and richly colored curtains affixed to each of the two or four posts — think of today’s sumptuous upholstered headboards as a distant cousin to these luxurious furnishings. The heavy fabric curtains were drawn across a fringed canopy to close out the sunlight that might’ve warmed your grandiose and opulent bedchambers. This feature could also offer privacy as desired, because, as we all know, a bedroom is for more than just sleeping.
Coiled springs didn’t make their way into mattresses until the 1800s, which likely made for a far more comfortable night’s sleep for many. Bed frames of cast iron and brass were introduced during the mid- to late-19th century. Later, the 20th century brought with it marvelous innovations for slumberland, among them daybeds from the likes of George Nelson and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich as well as convertible sofa beds.
Today, you will find a range of beds geared toward your individual personality and preferred style of decor. When shopping for a bed and bed frame, keep in mind that you’ve got options. Sizes range from twin to California king. At 76 inches wide and 80 inches long, a king-size bed is roughly 16 inches wider than a queen-size mattress, and your bed frame will likely add two to five inches to each side. (The California king bed is 84 inches long.)
From dramatic bedroom designs to uncomplicated, minimalist approaches, the bedroom has evolved into the haven that it should be: a peaceful place of respite, where we begin and end every day. Take the time to create your very own oasis — you deserve it. Rest easy with an expansive collection of antique, new and vintage beds and bed frames available on 1stDibs.
