About the Item

A Qing Dynasty period opium daybed from the 19th century, with woven rattan top and removable railings. This 19th-century Qing Dynasty opium daybed is a beautifully constructed piece with a dark patina and timeless design. The top is crafted from woven rattan, providing both durability and texture. Surrounding the top are three removable railings, each adorned with carved medallions and sinuous curves that add a sense of fluidity and elegance to the structure. These railings feature trickling down effects, and their flexibility makes the daybed versatile for different seating or sleeping configurations. The daybed rests on four sturdy chow legs that are connected by a carved apron at the front, giving the piece a balanced and grounded appearance. The detailed apron is an exquisite example of traditional craftsmanship, adding to the aesthetic appeal of the daybed. This Qing Dynasty opium daybed can serve multiple purposes in a modern home, from a statement seating piece in a living room to a stylish guest bed in a study or bedroom. Its rich history, combined with its functional yet artistic design, makes it an ideal addition to any space that values both form and function. The removable railings also make it adaptable to a variety of decor styles and uses.
