About the Item

FRENCH PROVINCIAL CARVED BEECHWOOD ANTIQUE DAYBED Paris, c. 1880 Stamped "Léon ROGER" en verso Item # 409CTI20 This is a very attractive French Provincial daybed from the last quarter of the 19th century. Carved in the Louis XV taste, though clearly with a Provincial appeal, the surfaces are highly active and wonderfully carved with floral motives highlighting all major spaces. The frame is deeply molded, this particularly bold in the swirling acanthus hand holds flanking the daybed. Constructed with permanence throughout, all joinery is tenon-mortise, most of these joints being pegged tenons. The daybed is crafted to be easily broken down into small pieces, the two sides, front and back rails all coming easily apart with four bolts and two screws. The form rests over short cabriole legs with flowers carved along the knees and terminating in scrolled French toes. The back leg is stamped with a single brand of Léon ROGER, Paris. An absolutely gorgeous piece with a warm and well developed surface patina, this is a gorgeous piece for any home decorated in the French Country taste. Sturdy and strong, this was crafted to last through the generations and will be cherished well beyond our lifetimes if cared for properly. Measurements: Approx. 79" W x 31" D x 43 3/4" H; 7 13/16" H to interior brackets (where the bed frame rests), 12" H to top of lower rail Condition Report: Upholstery must be changed, extensively damaged and stained. Outstanding state of preservation, retaining an early and deeply patinated finish. Only minor surface blemishes and abrasions, as expected from light use. Very sturdy and comfortable. Upholstered "bed frame" is probably later, but we haven't taken off any upholstery to examine understructure.
