This extraordinary antique bed frame is a stunning example of French Art Nouveau craftsmanship, dating to circa 1890. Featuring a beautifully aged powder green finish, it is adorned with an elegant floral design in shades of forest green, gold, white, and blue.

Its graceful curves and delicate detailing make it a perfect statement piece for a guest bedroom, day room, or den. As expected for a piece of its age- approximately 135 years old- there is some wear and tear, which only adds to its authentic vintage charm.

There is a marking on the frame which reads 17/180. This kind of marking was common in the 19th century, especially among
manufacturers, where they kept track of handcrafted items or smaller production runs.

"17" could represent the individual piece number-as in, this was the 17th piece made in that style or production batch of 180 pieces.

Dimensions:
Front Height: 57.25 in
Back Height: 48.25 in
Length: 76 in
Width: 37.5 in

Note: The piece breaks into (4) pieces for transport- included is (3) frame boards for the rails which supports the mattress. See less
