Rich in character and artistry, it features deeply carved panels with traditional foliate motifs and a central scene of Breton figures beneath a tree, a hallmark of the region’s craftsmanship.
The headboard rises with elegant detail, crowned by finely worked carving, while the footboard is framed with turned posts and decorative panels that reflect the pride and skill of 19th-century Breton artisans.
