    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Yes, canopy beds are still made. A canopy bed features four posts, one at each corner, and affixed to the top of the post is a canopy.

  • What is the difference between a canopy bed and a four poster bed?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A four poster bed features four posts, one at each corner. A canopy bed also has four posts, one at each corner, but a canopy bed is covered with a cloth of some sort.
