AMERICAN ROCOCO REVIVAL TESTER BED BY ALEXANDER ROUX
American, 19th century, rosewood, signed with stencil markings to bottom front of the headboard. Elaborate scrolling crests to the headboard and tester hood all flanked with turned finials, with matching arched footboard, the bed fitted with iron wheels. Bow front tester top with four rounded corners for finials, with original posts and elaborately carved bracket supports for the tester.
Headboard: 74 x 70 in. (188 x 177.8 cm.), Tester: 69 1/2 wide x 59 1/2 in. depth (176.5 x 151.1 cm.)

The tester top and the tester supports have much re-work to them. We have not had the tester on the bed, we have only photographed the parts which seems to be complete.
