Beautifully crafted in the neoclassical louis xvi style, it showcases spiral fluted columns, upholstered head and footboards and foliate embellishments. The original aged soft mustard-yellow paint lends the piece a rich patina. The headboard and footboard are adorned with gracefully carved crests, flanked by classical column sides decorated with acanthus leaves. Carved rosettes accent the corners, while the bed stands on tapered, fluted louis xvi legs.

measuring 181 cm in length and 123 cm in width, this bed differs from standard modern sizes due to its antique french origins. It serves perfectly as a daybed in its dimensions. The frame boasts excellent craftsmanship, remaining solid and sturdy. The finish is in good vintage condition, and while the upholstery shows some signs of use, it remains clean and full of character, ready for immediate use.

please note: the side of the bed that is supposed to stand against the wall is upholstered in plain grey fabric. Please note that slats and a mattress are not included.
