About the Item

Pair French Louis XVI Twin Beds in Stripped Oak are a wonderful find, indeed! Hand-crafted from dense, old growth oak, the pair has been designed to last for generation after generation. The tailored, classically-inspired architecture includes a generously rounded top on both head and foot boards. The same are carved all around with laurel wreath motif, with seed clusters at the crests. More carved detail appears at the centers of the foot boards, depicting floral and foliate sprays. Tailored molding pervades the remainder of the design, all of which is supported by tapered legs for a clean, timeless look. A standard twin mattress will ride atop the rail shelves with room to spare on the length, an unusual luxury with most antique beds. Painstakingly stripped using our proprietary process that retains the patina and sheer natural beauty of the old wood, all performed by our expert in-house staff. Circa 1890s Head boards measure 56H x 39W; foot boards are 33H x 39W ~ rails are 79" long. Available for pickup in the Dallas Design District, Dallas, Texas

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...
