About the Item
Antique Parisian Marquetry and gilt bronze bed by Au Gros Chêne
French, late 19th century
Dimensions: Height 127cm, width 167cm, depth 212cm
This elegant bed is designed in the late 19th Century French Neoclassical style, retailed by Parisian firm Au Gros Chêne. It stands on four legs, the back two of square profile form, and the front crafted in cabriole form and decorated with ormolu foliate mounts. The headboard is curved, with ormolu mounts to each side and an ornate motif at the centre top. It features a wooden veneer that appears like sun rays, as well as an ormolu beaded border. The foot of the bed is similarly designed, with beautifully ornate marquetry in the design of a Neoclassical vase with feathers and foliate garland within an oval cartouche. Further ormolu mounts adorn the sides and the bottom of the bed, with laurel leaf garlands surrounding an oval cartouche.
The bed features a brass plate reading 'AMEUBLEMENTS DE STYLE / Meubles, Sieges, Tentures / AU GROS CHENE / 12, Rue Drouot / PARIS'. Au Gros Chêne were a popular Parisian furniture firm. Today, the site of 12 Rue Drouot where they were situated is occupied by the large auction house Hotel Drouot.

Antique Four Poster Bed
Located in Bradford-on-Avon, Wiltshire
A fine late 18th Century large Dutch four-poster bed with exceptional posts and ealy 19th century Italian carved giltwood swans.
The posts with well carved elements: neoclassical urns, capitals, carved turnings and vase sections; their most attractive part is the boxwood and mahogany lined inlay which we haven't seen on English 18th beds.
In addition, unusally, the rails are designed to be seen and made in mahogany and framed with carved and plain astragal beads.
Good sturdy construction, fixed together with steel bolts and will dismantle for shipping.
Needs new drapery hangings and the white fabric around the end posts & headboard should be cleaned or replaced. For the new mattress, we would recommend a box spring mattress with a well (height is saved with part of the box mattress fitting between the rails) and a second mattress on top. But you could also fit lathes and just have the top mattress with cut out corners to fit around the posts: norris bedding custom make such mattresses.
This bed originally had fabric around the top but for an additional cost we could make a wooden cornice...
