Description

This splendidly attractive super king-sized Edwardian bed has lovely detail in the decorative castings and clamps. The foot end has two attractive upstands which look particularly attractive, these again have great detail and are very pretty.

Very nice brass finials and rails have been buffed to a lovely shine, which we think really compliments the colours of the bed.

This bed has a specialist hand painted finish, using Little Greene’s Olive and Boxington colours, with a very subtle dark wax to preserve and give a soft sheen.

Professionally restored to be sturdy and practical, the frame has been shot blasted, primed, hand painted and waxed. The side rails have been strengthened and adapted to support wood slats or a bed base.

Head height 150cm

Foot height 108.5cm

FAQs

Victorian beds from the 19th century frequently feature robust metal or iron frames combined with polished brass accents, reflecting the industrial manufacturing advancements and eclectic aesthetic tastes of the era.

These bedframes were predominantly constructed using cast iron, wrought iron, and heavy-gauge tubing, complemented by solid brass finials, rails, and decorative castings.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-poured iron joints, threaded brass components, characteristic patina, and non-standard sizing that often requires custom-made mattresses.

Pairing a metallic antique bed with neutral linens, contemporary bedside tables, and minimalist lighting creates a balanced focal point that highlights the historical craftsmanship without overwhelming the room.

Maintain metal surfaces by dusting regularly with a soft, dry cloth and avoiding harsh chemical polishes that can strip the protective historical lacquer or oxidised finish.
