Are Edwardian beds actually from 1901 to 1910?

Not reliably. 'Edwardian' sits alone in the dated field on most listings, functioning as a trade and style description rather than a year. Where clean years are given they cluster on 1900 and 1910, but the declared range across the archive runs from 1850 to 1940. A meaningful minority are labelled Victorian, 19th century, 1910s or 1920s.

Do these beds come in modern king size?

King appears in a substantial number of titles and super king in a smaller group, with 5ft and 6ft widths stated outright. Those sizes usually mean either a period bed widened for a modern mattress or an unusually large original. Irish all-iron king size beds are a small recurring group in their own right.

What is a pair of singles that can be joined?

Two matching single bedsteads that push together to make one wide bed. The phrase turns up through the matched-pair listings. Pairs are a fifth of the whole field, seventy titles, which makes them one of the most common configurations under the heading.

Which woods and metals turn up most?

Brass leads the material count, with mahogany close behind. Oak follows, then iron, then walnut in a smaller group. The brass beds are tubular and often combined with iron, frequently painted black, white or cream. The mahogany ones are commonly inlaid.

Is a headboard on its own worth less than a full bed?

Listings offering only a headboard, or a set of head, foot and side irons as parts, sit at the bottom of the range. Complete bedsteads run through the middle, and matched pairs above them. Four posters hold the top, and they are only thirteen titles out of more than three hundred.

Are there unusual forms besides plain bedsteads?

Yes, though they are scattered. Four posters, half testers and day beds form a small but persistent group under a tenth of the field. Single oddities turn up once each: a fold-down oak day bed, an extending walnut daybed, a brass cot bed, a cane bed, a leather bedstead hand-painted in Dutch style, and one carved with an owl, an eagle and a pelican.
