About the Item

A French Art Deco bed frame, dating from the early 20th century, sourced in Provence, France. Richly crafted with dramatic burl walnut veneers and floral marquetry inlays, the piece has been structurally revised and lightly refinished. The headboard and footboard showcase striking bookmatched burl walnut panels in a warm amber tone, framed by contrasting rosewood banding and finished with brass beaded trim. Both panels are embellished with intricate floral marquetry, composed of fruitwoods including maple, cherry, pear, and walnut, set against a rosewood ground. The crest of the headboard is further decorated with a garland of inlaid flowers, demonstrating the refined craftsmanship of the period. Raised on turned legs, veneered in walnut, the bed balances bold presence with elegant proportions. Natural signs of age and use are visible along some edges, including surface wear and small veneer losses consistent with its history, adding depth to its patina. The interior opening measures 75.5" x 56" (192 x 142 cm), designed for a French 140 cm double mattress. This corresponds closely to a U.S. Full/Double size, though approximately 2" wider. This piece exemplifies the glamour and elegance of French Art Deco design, where geometric structure meets naturalistic ornament, and the variety of fine woods - burl walnut, rosewood, and multiple fruitwoods - make it a distinctive statement bed for a collector or designer seeking authentic period craftsmanship. - Origin: Provence, France - Period: Early 20th Century - Materials: Walnut, Burl walnut veneer, Rosewood, Fruitwoods, Brass beaded trim. - Dimensions: W 83.75" x D 61" x H 59.5 (Headboard)"/ 30.5" (footboard); Boxspring and mattress dimensions: W 75.5" x D 56" - Condition: The bed remains sturdy and well-preserved, with expected surface wear, minor veneer losses, and small age-related imperfections consistent with early 20th-century use; overall presenting with a rich patina and ready for installation.
