Description

A beautiful antique French painted double bed frame, elegantly decorated in the neoclassical taste with applied mouldings and central Wedgwood Jasper-style plaques. The soft painted finish enhances the refined detailing, including swags, ribbons, and classical ornament.

Both the headboard and footboard feature striking blue and white classical plaques, creating a refined focal point ideal for traditional or contemporary interiors.

Importantly, the bed comes complete with its original side irons, making it ready for practical use - a key advantage often missing from antique beds.

Raised on turned legs, this is a highly desirable piece of antique bedroom furniture, perfect for those seeking a French painted bed, double bed frame, or statement antique interior piece.

A complete and elegant antique bedstead, combining decorative appeal with functionality.

Condition Note:  The bed frame is in good antique condition commensurate with its age. The painted finish shows honest age-related wear - the characteristic chalky patination of old white paint that gives pieces of this type their particular appeal and charm. Both Wedgwood Jasperware-style plaques are present and intact on the headboard and footboard. All moulded decoration - the acanthus frieze, swags, garlands, bellflower drops and apron carving - is present and well-defined. The turned legs and brass castors are sound. The original side irons are complete and present, meaning this bed is ready for use with a standard double mattress. An honest description from a specialist dealer with 60+ years of family experience.
