Pair of 19th Century French Gilded Distressed Single Beds

19th century

Sold by James Ribbons Antiques

Description

An exciting pair of French single beds. They are naturally distressed with most of the gilding and silvered highlighting still intact. There are signs of the wood showing through some of the gilding.

Personally I love them as they are...a bit shabby but original. However , they would also look wonderful if painted.

They are original 19th century but we have replaced the railings and slats. There are more slats but we have only shown five in each bed for the pictures.

The measurement to the exterior of the railings is 38ins, and front to back of the railings is 76ins which means that a standard single mattress would fit onto the slats.(mattress not provided)

The width of the headboards is 42 ins wide and the height of the bed ends is 26ins.

We have labelled the rails to ensure easy assembly.
