The Guest Bedroom — The Bed.
A beautiful place to settle in for the night.
This antique Edwardian full-size brass bed, circa 1900–1920, features a tall gently bowed headboard, coordinating footboard, slender vertical rails and original-style porcelain casters. The restrained design bridges the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, replacing the heavier ornament of earlier brass beds with cleaner, more linear proportions.
The warm aged brass surface gives the bed character without making it overly formal. Its simple vertical lines also make it surprisingly adaptable: beautiful in an English-inspired guest room, but equally effective with traditional, collected or more contemporary furnishings.
JUNE'S THOUGHTS
What I like most about this bed is its simplicity. So many antique brass beds are highly decorative, but this one has clean vertical lines and that wonderful gentle curve across the headboard and footboard. It gives a guest room the character of an antique without making the room feel overly formal. I especially like it with soft quilts, good linens and a mix of old and new pieces around it—the bed provides the history, and everything else can be kept relaxed.

The brass-wrapped metal surfaces retain an aged patina with areas of discoloration, oxidation, spotting, and surface wear and variation in the finish. Porcelain casters show age-related wear. The bed remains structurally sound and includes the headboard, footboard and side rails. Please note the dimensions carefully: this is an antique full/double bed measuring approximately 54" wide × 70" long. The 70" interior length is shorter than today's standard 75" full-size mattress. A custom-size mattress, shortened foundation, or other appropriate bedding solution may therefore be required. Buyers should confirm their intended mattress and support system before purchase.brass-wrapped metal construction, less
