Italian Carved Linen Headboard w/ Antique Panel

About the Item

This striking custom headboard, designed by Melissa Levinson, seamlessly combines antique European craftsmanship with contemporary elegance. The upper portion features an exquisite late 18th to early 19th century Italian carved wood panel, richly detailed with scrolling acanthus leaves, floral motifs, and mythological figures in deep relief. The carving showcases the artistry of the Italian Baroque and Neoclassical periods, retaining a beautifully aged patina that adds historical depth and character. Below the panel, the headboard is upholstered in a washed natural Belgian linen—a fabric known for its soft texture and organic, understated luxury. The tufted diamond pattern adds tailored refinement, each button delicately pulling the linen to enhance visual depth and tactile comfort. The sides are outlined in a classic nail head trim, further emphasizing the structure and craftsmanship. This one-of-a-kind piece brings together centuries of decorative heritage with modern design sensibilities, making it a timeless focal point for any sophisticated bedroom interior.
