About the Item

A queen-sized Anglo-Indian poster bed stands as a monument to forgotten stories, its dark rosewood bearing the weight of a century. The headboard, adorned with a double-paned mirror, captures fragments of its history; the silvered glass is cracked with time, and the reflections are splintered like memories struggling to hold themselves together. Intricately carved details stretch across the frame, wild yet deliberate as if the wood itself once grew under the urgency of hands eager to leave their mark. The low slats beneath invite rest while whispering the burden of endurance, requiring only a low-profile box spring to meet their quiet demands. Circa 1900.
