Description
This is a pair of antique twin beds crafted by Berkey & Gay, a renowned American furniture manufacturer known for high-quality pieces during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These beds feature rich burl and mahogany wood, showcasing the intricate, swirling patterns characteristic of burl wood, complemented by the deep, reddish-brown tones of mahogany. Each bed has elegant carved accents along the posts and footboard, with fluted details that add to their vintage charm. The paneling on both the headboard and footboard highlights the natural beauty of the wood grain, giving these beds a stately and timeless appeal. Perfect for adding a touch of historical elegance to your bedroom.
The twin head- and footboards can also be doubled up to create a king size headboard and footboard. The finish appears to be original.
**Shipping** I can ship this to the West Coast for approximately $500, so if you're interested in this item and you live closer to the East Coast, shipping would be less. Send me a message with your zip code and I will provide you a personalize shipping quote. The beds will be shipped in two separate boxes. Thank you for your interest!
Condition:
Alterations: Original Condition Unaltered
Imperfections: Some Imperfections
Condition Notes: One small strip of wood is missing on one of the headboards. I can try to replace this, but due to the finish being original, it will be hard to replicate the patina. Light scratches, a few dings here and there. Considering the age, they're in pretty good condition. No rails included.
