Vintage American Empire Mahogany Twin/Full Four - Poster Bed
Item History & Price
Produced sometime between 1945 and 1955, these lovely mahogany twin/full four poster bests are an excellent example of the late American Empire movement. While it was most popular toward the latter half of the 19th century, it re-surged during the Depression years and into the 1940s. It features full length posters on all four sides, each displaying a spiraled acanthus leaf base, a faintly floral beaded fluted mid section, with a band of spiraled reeding ending in a highly detaile...d pineapple with flattened disk pediment with bead detailing. The head and foot boards are exact mirrors of each other with a ball joint hidden in all four feet of the bed, to make it easier to move and arrange. The pieces each measure 86" high, 44" wide, and each head and foot board are 4" deep. Total weight of each bed is 132 pounds. The rails feature ledges to hold a large twin or twin full mattress, no cross bars. These two items are in very good to excellent condition, showing a few minor scuffs and marks from age and use.
