True History Victorian Brass And Iron King Size Bed With Porcelain Detail

£2,250    $2,809    €2,694
This beautiful Victorian brass and iron king size bed is a real piece of story with its gorgeous naturaly aged brass and porcelain details depicting two historical famous musicians and one historical famous Irish politician . We have wondered this selection of cameos were chosen and looked for a link between them. What we have found in a brief search, is that they were all committed to their convictions and were revolutionaries to a greater or lesser extent.
 
Felix Menelssohn..Born 1809 German musician and composer.
 
Daniel O''Connell Born 1775 Political leader in Ireland and sat in British Parliamnet
