French solid oak marriage bed. Lovely flourishing shaping and naive carvings of cornucopia’s brimming with flowers and a productive seasons harvest, symbolising abundance and good tidings for the marriage. Two birds entwined feature on the headboard of the bed, again amongst plentiful flowers and leaves. This bed rather fabulously also features carving detail on the inside of the foot, giving a beautiful view whilst in bed. The siderails also feature bird and flower carving.
