19th Century French Painted Double Bed

19th Century French painted double bed of conventional bed form, being 5ft in width. This interesting bed frame is carved and painted with urn finials on the bed head above leaf carved supports and a repeating guilloche pattern carved across the top rail. The frame of the bed is painted a soft grey/blue with white highlights and there is lots of carved detail. The tapering toupie feet have waisted collars and fluted sections. The poles at the bottom of the bed have repeated carved finials and applied swags and floral paterae. The headboard is stripped back to the original calico and will require reupholstery. (#4079)
