Pretty iron and brass French king size bed features pleasing all original brass detail in the head and foot in the form of three brass hoops, connected by brass tube and brass balls, lightly polished to show natural age and patina. Lovely detail within decorative castings.
Professionally restored with side rails lengthened, strengthened and adapted to support wood slats or a bed base for modern king size mattress 5' x 6'6" / 153cm x 200cm.
The frame has been shot blasted, primed and hand painted with Little Greene’s Portland Stone Light, waxed to preserve and give a soft sheen.
