This nineteenth-century Regency day bed is made from warm brown mahogany with a solid construction. It has panelled endboards of unusual design incorporating flush folding flaps supported by mahogany brackets and fold-over brass hinges. The seat has a newly upholstered light blue striped mattress cushion, finished to the mahogany rail at the front and over-stuffed around the rail at the reverse. The piece stands on square tapering legs with spade feet, reinforced with metal brackets, and shows signs of previous alterations to the construction. Measuring 77 cm high, 198 cm wide and 72 cm deep, this practical form functions well as a daybed or bench in a home today. The timber displays a rich warm brown tone complemented by the striped light blue upholstery, while the unusual flush folding flaps and spade feet provide distinctive architectural details.

FAQs

Originating in classical antiquity and popularised during the 18th and 19th centuries, daybeds served as versatile furniture pieces designed for resting during daytime hours without reclining in a formal bedroom setting.

These pieces typically feature solid mahogany or mahogany veneers over pine frameworks, hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, and panelled endboards supported by turned or tapered legs.

Look for indicators of period construction such as hand-sawn timber marks, original iron or brass fixings beneath the frame, natural oxidisation on unworn surfaces, and slight structural irregularities typical of hand craftsmanship.

Position the daybed along a wide wall, beneath a window aperture, or at the foot of a bed, dressed with neutral wool throws and contemporary scatter cushions to blend historic timber tones with modern textures.

Keep the timber clear of direct sunlight and radiator heat sources, dust regularly with a soft dry cloth, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually to preserve the finish.
